Weird dry, bumpy skin that doesn't go away?!


Question: I have had this odd patch of dry bumpy skin (i can't think of a better way to describe the texture, maybe like extremely soft and fine sandpaper) under the right side of my jawbone for weeks now (could have been months, I'm not sure when i first noticed). The patch starts right where the bottom of my ear lobe meets my jawbone and goes about halfway to my chin and slightly down my neck. It's not itchy, uncomfortable or irritating, and I don't even notice it unless I touch it. It's just...weird. I have tried various lotions and cleansers, but it doesn't go away.
Now today I just noticed a small patch of skin just like it on the upper part of my back, right under my neck.
Like I said, there's no irritation from it, I am just wondering if I should be concerned if it is a possible skin condition, since apparently it is spreading, and also because of it's odd location (under my jawbone...the hell?)
I'll be happy to provide any further information, and any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've had these before and my Dr told me it was a form of dermatitis and nothing to worry about... this was in Australia and he told me to use sorbelene cream it's just cheap and I bought a massive bottle for about $5 at Big W... I now live in the states and haven't found sorbelene cream (haven't really looked properly) but I found Aquaphor Healing ointment by Eucerin (I bought this at Walmart) and that has worked great for me also... my 2 year old daughter has these spots on her belly and back aswell and I use this on her and they're clearing up quiet well.
Give it a go and they should clear up in a week or so... Best of luck
oh also... I wouldn't use any exfoliant on then if they're on your face because it could irritate them and dry them out...

Use aveeno face cream.

I have that on my arm before but mine didn't spread. Probably just some minor form of psoriasis. Worth getting checked out just to get it cleared up. That's just my opinion.

belive me only drink alot of liquid alot of water and juices

I would go see a doctor. but maybe its a form of ringworm. Good Luck

skin cancer?
melanoma?
i think you should see a dermatologist stat.

I ONCE DATED A GUY THAT HAD THAT ON HIS FACE...it looked like you could take a SOS pad too it off....good luck...

You better drink freshly squeezed vegetable juice for two three months. And use fruits and vegetable's pulp and juice as cream for your skin. You may add a raw egg and milk. Long time ago people did that and I do when no one home. Do not use chemicals as cream. Eat as more vegetables as possible. Stop eating carbohydrates and sugar, sweets. It all what you eat.
