I have small red bumps on my arms/biceps that have been there for a few years. How can I get rid of them?

Question:

I'm a 25-yr-old male. The bumps aren't that big of a deal, which is why I haven't done anything about them, but if there's a quick way to get them to go away, I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

Answers:
Samll red bumps on arms are PK. the K stands for keratosis, I forget what the P stands for.
I have this common conditon. Aquaphor on the bumps every day makes them go away. It costs $5. at the drugstore. It is the only thing that works.

Other Answers:
Change the soap you are washing your clothes in.

they could be from irritation or from dry skin. Try putting a moisturizing lotion on them every morning and at night after your shower. They could be irritation from something your wear. try a lotion that's used for people with eggsima..it starts with a C. That could work also if the lotion doesn't work

See a doctor. Taking care of this could be as simple as exfoliating your skin when you wash, or it could be an allergic reaction to something. There are lots of products out there that claim to handle body acne, but you need to find out what it is before you can treat it.

i know exactly what it is: cloths rubbing to close to your skin wear more loose clothing if you whant to loose them ;)
