Skin problems


Question Posted Saturday June 10 2006, 10:23 pm

I have red dots all over my skin (its not razor burn) I have them on my arms and legs mainly. I have tried many types of creams including olay quench (that has worked the best) and i use moisterizing body wash (I have also tried many brands of bady wash) The thing is whenever I use the cream my skin feels really soft and smooth but I still see red dots. I was wondering what i could do to make them go away.

Thanks in advance!

It does sound a lot to me like dry skin, as I get exactly the same problem on my upper arms and all up and down my legs.

Like you, I tried many different moisturising creams and none worked. Then, one day I ran out and I used a moisturising foot cream from Boots. I used it in the morning when I got up and before I went to bed at night and within 3 days, the red spots had totally disappeared on my legs and almost gone on my arms.

I would suggest that rather than sticking to the normal moisturisers, go for a foot moisturiser. Mine was from Boots but I don't know if you are in the UK or US. If you are from the US, try to find a good foot moisturiser, preferably with seaweed proteins, as I think this may be what helped. If you live in the UK, it's Boots own Foot Moisturiser. A sort of turquoise colour in a clear plastic round tub.

I get that on my legs and my sisters say its because we were pants alot in the winter and your hairs get caught in the little tiny holes in youre pants...
But you should tell youre parents and see what they say but if that doesn't help....then i think you should go to a doctor or something

It could be a allergic reaction to those creams, like the person below me said.

But do you think it could be bug bites?

Well whatever it is, you should get it checked out by a doctor if they dont go within the next few days.

Dont use any more cremes unless your doctor tells you to.

Maybe its all the cremes and lotions that are making your skin break out..
I say give not applying anything a whirl and see how it turns out. If you're still breakin out, see a dermotologist. they specialize in those types of things.
