Skin Conditions - November 2007

i had noticed these lil tiny red/flesh colored bumps at the edge of my lips a few weeks ago and since then they have gotten bigger and i used hot compresses (and i mean boiling hot) and one of them, (theres two) sorta popped up like a pimple but the white head on it was rock hard. well i figured... Stupidly that i would pop it and put hydrogen peroxide in there. well i sterilized the tweezers and very painfully popped that one. and put peroxide which bubbled ALOT and i left it alone. i asked my mom (she's a nurse) an she said i should have left them alone. well i knew i shouldnt have messed with it but i did anyways. i DO have Herpes type 1 (the fever blister one) and these arent normal fever blisters and the type i usually get are INSIDE the mouth. any ideas as to what they are?

This morning when I woke up, my neck was extremely itchy. After school, it started spreading to my face, giving it small reddish bumps. Then, it started making my back itchy, along with a little bit of my thighs.

And before anyone asks, the red bumps on my face and back are not pimples. >_>

So like... I have no idea why this has started unless allergic reactions can take over 12 hours to start. (I was carrying and transferring a lot of storage into dusty/dilapidated storage unit, but have no previous encounters that have caused this.) Other than that, my diet has been the same, and nothing has changed.

So, any ideas how this could have started/Can allergic reactions take over 12 hours to start?

ok i got this rash on that back of both of my hands about 2.5 months ago. it went away after a month, but ever since then i have been getting wierd rashes. I have a really bad one on the back of my neck with bumps and everything. I got one on my leg that looks like razor burn, exept when i got it i hadn't shaved in like a week and a half. It always comes wih wierd bumps. My parents just thing it is from stress and say i shouldn't go to the doctor, but i am worried it might be something more serious. B/c i have had it for so long and everything. any thoughts?
p.s it itches like the dickens!!!

I think that I might possibly have it, even though I have the vaccine. My friend had it a while ago, and she also had the vaccine. I have a lot of little red bumps on one of my legs, and I'm trying to figure out what they are. They kind of itchy, and a little bit sore. Any ideas?? Thanks!!

A couple months ago, I developed ringworm on my leg that starting becoming surrounded with decent-sized blisters (not boils). At first, my doctor believed it was MRSA that was contracted through the ringworm. But when tests came back, another doctor told me that I was negative for MRSA and that it was just a staph infection.

She perscribed me to meds that cured both the ringworm and the blisters, although the area in which the blister/ringworm was looks as if it were bruised (barely visible today)

But a couple days ago, I noticed a single blister near my armpit no more than a quarter of an inch wide. At first, it hurt much as the staph blisters on my leg did has since developed a scab and doesn't hurt much at all.

Here are my concerns:

Could this be MRSA? Even though my doctor told me it wasn't, a recent MRSA cover-up I heard about has me worried as well as many surrounding schools infected with it.

What are the symptoms of MRSA and how deadly is it?

I've been ill for two days and now I have a tingly feeling above my lips. Its slightly red and not really that visible yet. I've had it before when I was younger, but I wasnt sure whether it was a cold sore or not because it formed all the way around my mouth. When I was younger it was exactly like it is now but it got worse because it then turned into this ring of dry, tingly scabby-looking thing around my mouth. So does anyone know what I have? And will it go away soon? What should I do to treat it?

I think they are either hives or a heat rash. Not very severe and I have no idea what the cause was. Possibly cold weather.

I have 6 blotches on my chin (about 4mm diameter). That's it. So it's not bad enough to take medication for. Just wondering how long will it last, approximately, if I just leave them?

I've had them for 2 days now.

They also 'disappear' when I am asleep (I wake up with a clear face) and then reappear in the next hour or so, only to last all day.

Looking at the other questions on stretchmarks, a lot of them include the word pregnancy in their answers... So for a slight alternative; What if they were not from pregnancy?
Stretchmarks are a problem for me and I will not get in a relationship due to their extensiveness... If you were faced with a woman who had stretchmarks over most of her lower body (bottom, thighs, etc) would you still feel the same?? (That is in referance to those who said that stretchmarks are a form of beauty as they show a woman has gone through pregnancy).
Am I right to hide my body? Would it put you off?

I just moved into a new apartment, and bought an air matress to sleep on. My roomate let me use one of his down comforters and pillows, and that's what I've been sleeping on lately. A few days ago I noticed a few bites on a wrist and on both ankles that itched like crazy, but they were far too small to be mosquito bites, and plus I live in Seattle and have yet to see a mosquito since I moved here.

Tonight I woke up about three hours after I went to sleep with at least a dozen bites on my left ankle alone, a bunch on my right ankle up to the knee, and bites on both forearms. I just got done crawling throughout my room checking everything I could think of with a flashlight, and I can't see a thing. What in the world could this be?
