What Causes Small Bumps In My Body?

I have some very small bumps on my body in a few places. A couple under my upper arm, one or two on my hands, a few on my penis and one or two on my inner thigh... They are typically not even visible until I itch them a little bit, then they become raised and slightly red. My corpsman (I m in the navy) thinks that maybe it is scabies.

Hello,

Yes, it does seem like scabies. I suggest you to use permethrin cream as a single, whole body application.

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