How Can Sores On The Chest And Arm Be Treated?
My husband has some sores that are popping up on his chest, under his arm, in his armpit. The oldest one is on his arm near his bicep. It started as a pimple then turned into a sore, and now it looks like it is drying up and starting to flake around the head in layers. What could this be?
