silent_x_cry answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 9:05 pm: For the bumps on your legs: it could be your shaving cream or razor. Try changing it. If that doesn't work, you should maybe talk to a dermatologist. He/she will be able to tell you if these bumps are normal, and what you can do (if anything) to get rid of them.
For pimples: try flouride toothpaste. I usually pop the pimple, then put a little dab of toothpaste on it, and it brings the oil to the surface. I'd suggest doing it at night, where you won't be bothering with it. This may not work for everyone, though.
For stretch marks, try Mederma. It's a scar medicine (you can buy it at the drug store) and the commercial says it works wonders on stretch marks.

liddylflirtx3 answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 6:19 pm: They could be pimples, or more likely ingrown hairs or razor burn (since it's on your legs). Since we don't know what they are exactly, then there's nothing right now that you can do about it. If they last for another week, you should go see your doctor.
If they're really red and are afraid everyone will notice them at the wedding, use some kind of concealer or cover-up to hide them.
You can get rid of the pimple on your arm by putting your regular face medicine on them (Clearisil, Clean & Clear...)
xxoBriannax answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 5:17 pm: The pimples on your legs are ingrown hair. You get them from shaving with like a dull razor and not enough soap or dry legs. Use body scrub to get rid of pimples or pop them. Stretch marks-- put cocoa butter on them 2 times a day and they will fade. They will never go away permenantly unless you have surgery. Good luck.
Laura answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 9:26 am: The things on your legs are probably ingrown hairs. They come from shaving with a dull razor, no soap, or dry legs. They go away on their own, but it takes a little while. If you have to show your legs, you could always put a little concealer on them, or wear pantyhose with a dress.
Pimples are easy to get rid of. Just take a washcloth and get it wet and put some really strong body wash on it, and scrub HARD. That will usually break them, and you'll see, they might start to bleed a little. If that doesn't work, you can squeeze them to pop them. Once they pop, put alchohol on them, to dry it up so they don't come back.

if ur shaving normal, put on globs on lotion on ur legs after.. thats what ur usually suppsoed to. i get those red bumps (sometimes with the hair 2) when i dont have lotion. i hope i helped!
xo_Ali answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 8:57 am: The things on your legs are most likely ingrown hairs. You just have to wait for them to go away. Try not shaving untill the disappear a little and you'll get a smother shave. Also put on a new blade. For the pimple on your arm, there is creams, etc, for body pimples and you should try those but theres no miracle cream. And for the stretch marks, they don't go away. They'll fade and there are creams out there to help them fade faster. Good luck! [ xo_Ali's advice column | Ask xo_Ali A Question ]
Roxybabii922 answered Tuesday August 31 2004, 8:05 am: It may be ingrown hairs, but I'm not sure, you just have to wait for it to go away... If you pull on them or something it will make it worse and more red also, so I'd just try and ignore it... [ Roxybabii922's advice column | Ask Roxybabii922 A Question ]
