Bumbs on arms?

2008-01-21 7:28 pm
get these red/pinkish bumbs on the top part of my arms and I really, really want to get rid of them, they make me feel so self concious. They look sort of like zits, but they definately aren't zits, and they don't get any type of white head or anything. Also, they don't hurt or itch either. My arms are kind of dry too. What are these and what can I do to get rid of them?

thanks. (:

ahh i have that its called like kerotosis pilaris....theres no real cure for them, im 95% they will go away overtime though...around this time(winter) they get their worse and only improve as the weather gets warmer...when the warm weather comes around, get out in the sun and tan the areas-it helps ALOT trust me, its what i do...theres not much you can do right now, just wait it out or you could goto a tanning salon but i dont think its worth it, just wear something that covers them up for now....also in my experience every year they get better and better...so hang in there!! it will get better

i read up on it and its a fairly common disease that comes during teenage years and usually goes away as you grow old

It is probably a cellulitis. As long as he has started any fevers or the area isn't getting any larger or disrupting his normal activities - like lifting his arm then it would be okay to wait until tom. morning. You can take a marker and circle around the red area -this will help you to know if it is getting any bigger. You can also apply warm moist heat to it - this can help to drain it. Don't push on it because it can make it worse.

I have them too. I just use an exfoliating face wash and moisturize.

sounds like eczema or keratosis. apply e45 (or another emolliant like aquious cream) daily and if you dont see an improvement, see ur doctor for a better cream, like topical steroid. wash the area with aqeous cream and a clean flannel when you shower.

that 1st piece of advice is awful, TANNING IS REALLY BAD FOR BOTH CONDITIONS.

i finally found someone that has the same problem as me its not zits.its the exact opposite of eczema with the same look and feel its called like cartosis or sumn like that. put lots of a lotion on and go to the doctor and he'll give you cream for it.=]
參考: me,i gots it too.

sounds like kertosis pilaris. look it up online and you'll find all kinds of info. neutrogena body wash works well. use it when you shower and scrub with a loofa. it will make a world of difference
