Skin Problem Posted: 06-15-05 13:20pm
About 5 years ago small red bumps began to
appear on my arms and legs. They vary in
size from 2 mm to 5 or 6 mm. Now they
appear any where on my body except my
face. If I leave them alone they dry up
and flake off in 2 or 3 weeks. If I pick
at one with my fingernail the "lid" lifts
up and it's raw underneath.Sometime they
bleed slightly.Eventually they heal and
dissappear. I've been to a dermatoligist
and he said it wasn't a skin problem. He
said it could be systemic. In other words
caused from something in my blood. Has
anybody ever heard of anything like this?
It's really getting old.

It sounds like you need to get to your
family physician, and have some blood work
done.
