thanks. i am 60 years old. years ago i had an ear infection that stayed on for a very long time . if i took meds it went away but returned. my doc gave up when it finally quit hurting. then i started gettting little bumps that look like pimples but only filled with water stuff. it itches and they seem to grow and fill. finally they get infected as well. eventually they also go away as others pop up. My derm says it is infection of the folicles and gave me some cream. this cream doesnt do anything. i tried the cream for yeast infection and it works on the ones that break. what is this stuff? Is it folicle infection. it used to be mostly on my face but now i have it on my upper arms. just a few at a time. thanks. sorry this is long. i have had this for almost 9 years and it seems to be getting worst. i have researched and found that you can have infection in your blood and it is life ending! my blood tests came back clear a few years ago but i was never checked for thises sores. i am married and i have never had outside of home sex.
