r/skin

Does anyone know what this is and what should I do to make this disappear? It started because of the extreme heat lately. The area became really itchy and I kept scratching until it got wounded. After that, these tiny dark spots appeared.

Hey,i recently noticed these little bumps on my right cheek and it reaching upto my forehead . I wanted to know if they are upcoming pimples or something else ? I only use mamaearth serum with 10% niacinamide and ginger extract ( product name ).

Raised bump .. not ichy , no pain .. i just forget i have them .. i thought they were skin tags and let them be .. but now i am worried

i didn't notice it there the few hours ive been awake because it doesn't hurt, i only realised as i was scratching my wrist and my nail somehow caught it. when i poke it, it feels denser underneath it.

just kinda odd, i tried posting this on r/whatisthis but it got taken down because it thought i was asking a medical opinion.. im just curious what it was and if my friend was right in guessing a spider bite, but it seems quite small so im not sure.

from Norfolk, UK, if that helps

its itchy any time if the day, i previously thought it was psoriasis but dont think it is, if its spreading and thats the oinment i used a year or so ago to clean up the initial outbreak
last photo shows where i used most of it to fix the outbreak on my arm, cant tell tho most of the scars are gone now but the white spots that u can still see are them healed

I am 6ft 180 ish and a male

Trying to figure out what this is. 4 year old and 2 year old (pictures of each) both woke up with a blister on the right side of their face this morning.

ETA 2 yo has been sucking finger so some of the redness is dried/irritated skin from that.

I’ve literally never had anything like this before. It was like actually in my skin and there is still a bit of a bump where it was pulled from. Feels like string?

Searched it up and got different things like sebaceous filaments and grey hairs. Grey hair seems really unlikely considering I’m a teenage girl and this seemingly appeared overnight?

Idk any advice is helpful😭

I got work done to my toe over a year ago and this mark on my toe has kept growing and there is a new one that has popped up recently

I’ve had these rings on my neck for about a week. They aren’t particularly itchy or painful. They definitely weren’t there two weeks ago, and it’s a bit concerning. I’m seeing my doctor in a couple days, but I wanted to see if I could get any idea ahead of time so I don’t potentially spread anything.

I'm 22yo female and I've been noticing these small red spots appearing on my arms for a long time now. They come and go in small numbers (usually only 3 or 4 active ones at a time)

They start out as tiny, slightly raised red bumps. They don't hurt, and they do not itch at all.

After a few days, the redness fades and they turn into flat brown marks/spots that take a while to completely fade away.. there are no other symptoms with these though

I noticed one on my stomach and leg as well..Is this something alarming?

Could use some help identifying this rash. The first photo is outer thigh the first day I noticed the rash, this past Saturday. Second photo is an accompanying (maybe unrelated?) rash in the inner thigh. Third photo is this morning.

As far as symptoms, I felt slight itching and overall swelling but nothing major. Earliest I could have been bitten by anything was this past Tuesday. I'm trying to rule out: spider bite, skeeter syndrome (I usually get hives when getting bit by mosquitos, but never had SS before), and crossing my fingers it isn't Lyme. I didn't see a tick but I know that doesn't mean much. I started doxycycline this AM as a precaution, Lyme test was negative but it's early days.

Also - I didn't outline but it seems the area isn't expanding (at least since the day I noticed it- it likely could have gotten bigger from day 1, whenever that would have been). First photo was at least day 2, up to day 3 or 4 after the bite.

Just noticed it after i woke up. Im on a trip in Cali rn, its not overly itchy but im worried it might be ringworm.

Its been on my skin for ~2 weeks now and I tried squeezing it out, and putting pimple patches on it but it doesnt do anything lol Im thinking of just poking it with a needle and draining, but I dont know if I should
