I Have Blotchy Raised Skin, How To Get Rid Of It ?
On my back, there has formed an area of blotchy spots, muttled together. The skin is discolored and slightly raised. It is not itchy. It started as a small area of blotchy, raised, discolored spots, and has gotten bigger over the last few months. I have two small circles of it on the inside of my left arm as well. I am not irritated by it whatsoever. I am just concerned because the area seems to be getting bigger/more spots are forming.

Hi;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
The blotchy raised area of skin can be a sort of infection due to fungus/bacteria also.Since it is not itchy the reason will be difficult to figure out without seeing it in person.The better option is to consult a Dermatologist who will examine you and advise treatment accordingly.
Thanks
