Suggest Treatment For Small Red Raised Bumps On Shoulders And Upper Chest

Hi, about 4 days ago I developed small raised bumps on my shoulders and some on my upper chest, most of them red, a few of them skin colour. They are not itchy or painful but just appeared from no where. Also about a week ago I did have a sore throat, stuffy nose and a headache but I dismissed it as a cold. I do have a pet cat but I don t think its an allergy because I have had him for 5 years. I havent been to the doctors because i have a phobia of needles and doctors: ) but I was just hoping if anyone could shed light of what these could be?

Hello,

First of all I need pictures of raised bumps if possible. It may be due to cold or allergic reaction , including infections as per your history. Raised skin bumps are very common, and in most cases they're harmless.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Arup Majumdar
