What is this I have on me?!


Question: Okay so I have these red bumps on the back of both of my arms. Imagen hives but a lot smaller. It does not itch. I have had it for two days. When I put lotion on it, it goes almost away but after a while it comes back. It is not anywhere else on my body. I looked. What might this be?

You might be developing keratosis pilaris. There is no treatment or cure for it. While ugly, it's not harmful or contagious. The back of the arms is the most common place to develop it.

You might want to visit your doctor to be 100% sure. Google a picture of it to compare with your arms.

Sounds like either a skin rash or ingrown hairs possibly from shaving. If its a skin rash try using baby powder.

Sounds like Keratosis Pilaris. It's a pain in the *** and lingers for a while. Go see a dermatologist.

P.S You're cute :)
