Suggest Remedy For Bumps On Forearm
Hi I m 15 and for about three months now I ve been having these bumps on my varying in size staring from my fore arm all the way to my bicep. Honestly I hate them they look disgusting and unattractive. I tried using acne cream treatment over night but it had not work, please help.

The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description is folliculitis as acne is unlikely to ocur on forearm. Topical antibacterial creams like mupirocin may be used along with oral antibiotics like doxycycline after consulting your dermatologist. Regards
