Should I be worried about this rash

nh_user_1297005 · February 22, 2020, 9:52am

So I was taking a shower, as anyone does and I noticed these tiny little dots on my arm they kinda look like there forming a bigger rash but there tiny tiny little dots, now ever since I was a child I've known to have bad skin and have rashes a lot but now as a 19 year old the fear of death etc scares me Does a Rash like this raise any concern ...????

I haven't had any bad joint pains or anything, and I don't feel sick I still get hungry etc! Its just on the top of my armpit no lumps or raised rashes

Hello Courtney, why don’t you show your arm to your local Pharmacist? Pharmacists are well qualified and are likely to know whether or not you should go and see your GP.
We all get spots and rashes from time to time and for the most part, they are nothing to worry about.
If you are really worried, then go and see your GP.

Ask to get your blood sugar levels tested

Do they itch?

Nope, not itchy at all only reason I saw them was due to looking at my arm otherwise I don’t think I would have noticed

Just keep the area clean and dry.Is it an area where you shave?It may be just folliculitis . If it spreads or you begin to feel unwell then time to see your doctor.
