not acne

[mona567]

i get the bumps on my face for no reason. Also my hair, chest. I have never had skin probems till now. Im 24 years old. I have had every medical test done everything came out good.  They itch when they heal. on my neck too. There is some in  my hair... they look bug bites but there is no way.

I went to my derm and they all had healed at this point. But now there back and at full force. between my thighs face chest. There getting worse and I dont understand where its coming from? I thought it was follicles problem but I thought maybe had something to with hiv? I dont know if I was exposed to this  virus or not? I have gotten two tests done one on march then in May both came back negative. I dont know what to do?

Thank you so much. Im going to look into more. It been very hard cause I have never had any kind of acne problems and this showed  up out of no where. It seemed like when spring hit. I have been to alot of drs but the time I get there they fade and heal...

Hello,
It can be due to folliculitis especially pityrosporum folliculitis. It is an inflammatory skin disorder that typically manifests as a pruritic, follicular papulopustular eruption distributed on the upper trunk of young. You need to get KOH examination of the skin scrapings done to confirm the diagnosis.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
