To change a topic??

Post by pdq67 »

What are these little raised rough bumps that I get every so often on my sun-burnt arms that are scaly and white?

Little Melanoma's??

They bother me so I get to picking at them and end up putting some orange oil on them and a week later, they are gone??

Got one on my right forearm now...

It's kind a like a wart, but isn't??

Kevin,

One time I did pick out a grub, but only one time. Sucker was alive under a scab.

And that was years ago back when I was a kid on the farm.

Rubbing alcohol cured his ass!!

Paul,

All kidding aside, you should have this looked at by a qualified dermatologist.

My bumps are on my forearms and are white rough little buggers.

An 1/8th" to maybe a 1/4" in dia. is all..

And never had them until I got old.

And I think that i do have a couple of spots of Seborrheic Keratosi on my back.

Can't see them, but do feel them when I scrub my back taking a shower.

Don't bother me so i leave them alone..

You need to see a doctor.

Definitely not Shingles because they don't hurt and are not like a red rash!!

Just little annoying crusty little bumps. One or two generally..

Back as a kid working on the traveling tie gang on the RR, I wore long sleeve old dress shirts to keep from getting sun burnt in the summer.

Probably should go back to wearing them when I mow our yard??

It sounds like Solar keratosis, I get them nitrogen burnt off regularly by a dermatologist. But every now and then over the years he has booked me in and cut them out.... See a dermatologist they will advise if they are a future problem or something easily managed.
