What Could Bumps On Stomach , Chest And Arms Suggest?
I have small bumps that started on my stomach and have spread. They don t itch and are very small and don t seem to pop so I don t think there is puss in them. It is starting to go on t chest and arms but try are just small patches of bumps. They don t itch at all so I m not sure what they are. I have ringworm on my thigh but these patches aren t in a circle so I don t think it would be that

The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description of the lesions is furunculosis which is an infection of the hair follicle.It can be treated with topical antibacterial creams like mupirocin.You must avoid pricking or fiddling with them. A short course of oral antibiotic like azithromycin might also help. For the fungal infection you can apply topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole over the groin region along with oral antifungals like fluconazole after consulting your dermatologist. Regards
