Skin Bumps

Overview

Skin bumps are raised areas on the skin that can vary in size, color, and texture. They may be a result of clogged pores, infections, or other dermatological conditions. Identifying the type and cause of a bump is key to effective treatment.

Signs of Skin Bumps

Skin bumps may appear with the following characteristics:

• Raised areas on the skin, varying in size and shape.
• Changes in color, such as redness or discoloration.
• Presence of fluid or pus (blisters or pustules).
• Hard, solid lumps beneath the skin (nodules or cysts).
• Itching, pain, or tenderness around the bump.

Potential Causes

Skin bumps can result from various factors, including:

• Acne or clogged pores leading to blackheads, whiteheads, or pimples.
• Infections such as folliculitis, cellulitis, or warts.
• Skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or keratosis pilaris.
• Allergic reactions or irritants causing contact dermatitis.
• Benign growths like skin tags, moles, or cysts.
