So my arms...it is really wierd, ive had this for years...they are like..little bumps that people have said to be pimples or ingrown hairs...they are white, really small, and on one arm, there is like dark spots on the top... I DONT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE!

CHANDLERS WISH

Perhaps you would like to explain what you mean by "greyish" as well, as noted in the thread deleted... as they really are the same topic.

So are you saying that the little spots, like sweat pimples, also have a dark spot on top of "all of them"?

Do they go away?

Do you use underarm?

Do you sweat alot?

Well.....they are white bumps on only the top of my arms and they have some discoloration (maybe a few) around some of them. ive had it since..well..a long time. and the dermatologist didnt help much.
he didnt mention anything about the grey colored arm pits either..

angelcapoeman

they dont go away,
i dont sweat alot, (well TOO much)
and by underarm you mean dioderant (???)
if so then yes.

Well I'm thinking you have oily skin and I know there are things you can do to help that but as I am not an expert, let's let other people read your thread and reply to you... Just come back daily to see if anyone has a simular problem... Most are sleeping now..

Sorry sweet, i was thinking you were referring to under your arms, as there were two posts and therefore i should have left that, but let's leave it here so people can answer both now ok...

So the second problem, is you are dark under your armpits in skin colour that's not an issue, women are dark in "un-hidden places", it's pigmentation nothing more so don't stress over that part.

There is nothing at all wrong with you, you just have to find how to keep your skin not being so oily and therefore, get rid of those little bumps.

Maybe google how to get rid of oily skin,whilst you wait.

Hmm, I'm not sure if this is the same situation, but I had that problem when I was younger.
It was actually a reaction to milk--yes, I'm lactose intolerant! Apparently some people react to dairy products by getting bumps on their arms, legs, etc. Once I stopped drinking as much milk, the bumps on my arms went away and my stomach felt much better!
Perhaps go to the doctor to see if that's a factor?

Yeah, I have that same problem. I have bumps on my arms too. But i have a terrible habit where I like to "pick" haha so they either turn into scars or scabs or just bigger bumps and they don't seem to go away that easily. But I've found that getting a woshcloth and after you shampoo and condition your hair take regular soap and just scrub your arms to get off all they extra gook the hair products leave on your skin. And maybe by some acne product and try it out on your arms see if it clears up at all!

Hope that helps =D
