    Dry raised bumps on arms
    I am not a sun worshiper, but I have had to be outside a lot this summer. I have had a couple of odd bumps form on my forearm that weren't there before a couple months ago. They don't have any real color other than skin color, are dry and flaky, and not really uniform in shape. Any idea what this might be? I've tried googling skin cancer, and it doesn't look anything like the photos. Not painful, just don't like having a couple rough lumps on my arm.

    I cannot make a diagnosis over the Internet. It might be a rash or a form of acne. If you think the bumps on your arms are a result from being in the sun then you should have it checked out by a dermatologist just to be on the safe side.
