Dermatology - Small hard bumps


Expert: Uribe - 7/1/2009

Question
Hello, I am a 35 yr old female from Ontario, Canada with
extremely oily skin (in case that helps). I developed these
tiny hard skin colored bumps between my breasts in the
cleavage area about a year ago. There are about 5 very tiny
bumps that feel a little hard and almost like a tiny skin
tag however so small that I cannot grab it like you could a
normal skin tag. I have tried picking and squeezing (like a
pimple/blackhead) and all they do is irritate them and make
them appear slightly swollen. Other then that they have
remained the same size for as long as they  have been with
me. I have attempted to use pimple creams which have not
proved worthy either. I have noticed that exfoliating and
using REVERSA 8% glycolic acid solution on them has made
them seem smaller but has yet to take them away completely.
I hope my description helps you to make a suggestion on what
this may be and possibly even suggestion on how to get rid
of them.
Thanking you in advance,
Trish
