Weird Red 'skin tags' around body.?!
Question: Weird Red 'skin tags' around body!.!?
Hi,
I noticed there was a growing lump on my arm once a few months ago and i ignored it!. Now, i have many of these lumps!. They are red and sometimes itchy!. They're all over my arm, and now i have a couple under my boob!. I read that if you have 8 or more skin tags you may have high blood pressure which may lead to diabetes!. At first i thought they were just skin tags but i don't think they are anymore!. I might go to the doctors now cause i'm getting worried!. I was just wondering what they are and how i can prevent more from growing(i can see many more trying to grow) Help i'm 13 if it has anything to do with my age(puberty and so so)!. It may just be the type of skin i have i don't know!. Thanks xWww@Answer-Health@Com

You might want to go to the doctor: it sounds a little like molluscum contagiosum to me!. These are not harmful but they are unsightly and can spread rapidly!.

i think i know what ur talking about!. 1 in 10 teens have the same problem u have (including me!)!. they start during/right before puberty and stop after/towards the end!. u can't do anything about them!. u could try applying hydrocortizone (not spelled correctly)cream daily for 2 weeks and they will go away!. if this doesn't work go to a doctor but i doubt it will be serious!. good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
