I have small bumps on my forearms, elbows, and legs. I've had them my whol life. They don't hurt and they're not red or irritated or nothing, they just bother me. Does anybody know how to get rid of them?

Tell your Dr. to research "Boeckscher Krankheit" - is German term. Dr. Boeck was Swedish, I believe and was the first to diagnose this problem.
Q: Do the lumps migrate? My wife had this affliction 30 years ago and it was treated with high cortisone injections. She is cured. But, times change and more modern medicine may be able to help you. Good Luck.

My best friend had them for years on her arms. She had to use a rough body scrubber (like a loofer) and went to see a dermotologist. It got rid of them eventually. :P Hope all goes well for you!

You need to see a dermatologist- that's a skin doctor - he can determine what is going on with your skin, it doesnt sound serious but you're better safe than sorry.

I also think you have exzema. Just get some skin creme it should clear right up.
