Well I have these weird bumps on my back! There like normal bumps but there scattered all over my back. I can't really get into detail but what Im thinking it might be a rash. I bathe! Im a clean person! Im just wondering. And this might seem nasty but I peel them off. I know that's bad but I can't help it. Just tell me what you think. :confused::confused:

It honestly sounds to me like blocked hair follicles, but I'm not fully sure without seeing them, I used to have them. Some people get them on their thighs too... well anyway, using a light scrub on your back every night, and using a bath scrunchie should help them. Also mild exposure to the sun if your back doesn't get any, only about 5-10mins a few times a week should help. Oh, and stop peeling them =)

Since this is posted under Child & Teen Health, I would have to venture a guess that it is acne.

And even if it is acne, the light scrub should help, but don't rub it in too hard! Also a moisuriser suited for us teens should help your skin too =D

Thanks again! You really give out good advice. And I scrubed real good and there was some improvement! And I don't peel as much. But I'm trying to stop. But thanks for the great advice and hope the best for you!
