So I've had the bumps on my chest, neck, a little bit on my face (cheeks/jaw near ears) and a few on my back (lower and upper) for about 6-7 years.... and they drive me crazy!!! They started with one or two here or there on my chest or upper back but now they've spread.

I've gone to a few dermatologists. One said it was scabies (duh not quite!) the other wanted to take a nice chunk out of my skin to test it (no thanks). What calms it sometimes is baby oil (w aloe and vitamin e) and jergens lotion (which is what I've used for years because of my sensitive skin). Nothing I've tried makes them go away though and they just itch so bad! The more I itch the worse they get.... sometimes I itch them so bad I make myself bleed and I don't know what else to do about them!!! I'm thinking I might try that peel thing (anything that might work) but it's horrible! Why is it that no dermatologist can figure out what to do when obviously there are many of us out there with the same problem?!

My last dermatologist said she's never seen anything like it.

ANY HELP?????
