Hi,
A differential for this will be the common warts. Another will be actinic keratoses. The common warts are readily diagnosed. They are skin colored and they are a little rough on the surface. Actinic keratoses are more evident when they are palpated and the more severe forms may be found on sun damaged skin. The severe forms may present with yellow or grayish white scales.
Do you usually sunbathe or have prolonged exposures under the sun?
Do you have similar skin conditions in other parts of the body?
Hi Vanessa,
The bumps are neither of those. I have had warts on my hands before (currently riding myself of one), and these are not warts. The are not actinic keratoses either. My GF is a PA, and she confirmed this (however, her expertise isn't in dermatology, so she is not sure what they are, but can help to figure out what they are not). I do not spend a lot of time in the sun (fair skinned, so sunscreen is always worn for prolonged exposure). This condition, as stated, is specific to the backs of my hands and tops of my feet.
These bumps are smooth and not course and, again, they are tough to spot by the naked eye unless you are looking for them or feeling for them.
I too have the same thing. They have been there for about five or six years now. Faint around palm area and tops of fingers also around sides of my feet. These are the only place these faint bumps are found that are skin colored and can't really tell they are there. Those other exaples they listed above I also did research on and this is not it. I wish I knew what they were too. Can anyone help?
I also have similar issues. I have small skin colored bumps on the side of my feet.I am not sure what they are and would like some answers. What are they? How did I get them? How can I get rid of them?
