What Causes Dry Bumps On Arm And Abdomen?
Hi, I have a a bump on my right arm that seems like a burn and very dry at the same time it barely apeared about 2 weeks ago but I have had 1 or 2 similar to it but smaller below my stomach and I am not sure what it is? I am 19 and I had chlamydia before but I was treated so I am not sure if it could of came from that or just that I shower in super hot water all the time.
