Rash? - ThinnerTimes

Hey guys,

I noticed not too long ago that I get these tiny little bumps in the areas I sweat the most and where I have the excess skin. They feel like goosebumps but you can't really see them, only feel them. They don't hurt or itch so that's good but I wonder if anyone else gets them?

They are clogged/blocked sebaceous glands. It's kind of like a black/whitehead. I get them near to my armpit, between my bra line & armpit.
They're harmless. I occassionally squeeze them out. My doc says they're harmless. Mine have no color to them either. If they don't bother you, leave them be. I just pick at mine for the sake of picking them...

Hm. They only show up after I exercise, from the sweat I'm guessing. I suppose if they don't itch or bother I *should* let 'em be.

Thanks for the response Princesse!

Try using a body peel, one of those bath scrubbie things or a loofa. Somewhere, I have a fantastic recipe for a scrub, if you want it. I make a lot of my own products since I don't really trust what they put in things. It works a treat on the ol' legs.
