Small Painful Bumps
Posted: 07-15-05 19:33pm

This morning I woke up with 2 clusters of small hard painful bumps on my wrist, and I have no idea how they got there. I didn't do anything that injured my arm I don't think, everyone I ask tells me it looks like poison ivy, but I know poison ivy isnt this small and is itchy, which isn't the case for me. The pain has also spread down so it feels like I twisted my wrist, but I am sure I didnt hurt myself.

Anyways, just wondering if there were any other options as to what this might be. Thanks

I think you should wait and watch if it subsides on its own. But never ever try to scratch them or rub them vigorously, this could leave permanent marks on your skin. :oops:

Red Itchy Bumps
Posted: 12-07-06 23:08pm

I randomly woke up one morning and had two clusters of 4 red bumps on my wrist one morning. At first I thought they were flea bites from the cat, but bites like that don't burn and itch and are sensitive to the touch. My doctor didn't know what they were either, but putting chamoline(spelling?) lotion...You know the pink stuff with an anti-histamine in it...It stops the burning, and it heals...Although mine has been taking 3 weeks to heal, they almost look like chickenpox, or a weird version of shingles.
They look kind of gross at the moment right now I hope they don't scar!
