Sounds like a condition called Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating.  It most commonly occurs during times of anxiety, stress or when your sympathetic nervous system is stimulated i.e. fight or flight or adrenaline rushes. You can treat this condition with topicals such as aluminum chloride (Drysol) or antiperspirants.  There are other treatments which include orals, injections and even surgery.  A dermatologist would be able to help you with this situation.  Best of luck!

Since you have been out of the country you should call your primary physician and tell them your symptoms and get their adivice.  \nIt could be some kind of rash from fever.

Well Mister, I think you got yourself a staph infection from picking at your lip. This is not uncommon for a staph to relocate from your face area to a nicer climate, your lip. You'd better get to a doctor or an ER to get some antibiotics or?  Good luck let them know why it started, they may have a look at it, it could be an infected hair that's feeding it, it may have to be pulled out.

I think what those are.....are boils.There is medication found at local drugstores which when applied will help.Ask a pharmacist for information on the product though.Even though the product may have information on it?....A pharmacist may have something to add.\nYou can call a doctors office and ask if what you have are actually boils.Some people have chronic cases and they may want to schedule an appointment for you to give you perscription strength medication.

Boil ease, and you have to ask for it from the pharmacist. You should discuss it with your doctor, it could be a sign of diabetes. And it is essential that you keep the area clean and wash anything that contacts the area with an antibacterial soap. The toxins secreted are the same bacteria that cause botulism, no joke. You can make yourself very ill or even grosser, someone else. Hope it gets better!

exfoliate your arms on a regular basis you might be getting ingrown hairs. It could also be a reaction to wheat products of milk. My daughter gets bumps on her arms when she drinks a lot of milk or has a lot of dairy products. you can put mederma (I think that is how you spell it) on the bumps after they are healed to reduce the scarring.

You should go to the doctor. You might have an infection.

Could be a pimple or a boil (yeah, I know, gross).  Don't pick at it, use a warm wet washcloth as a compress for about 10 minutes a few times a day.  If there is no relief in a few days, see your doctor as if it's a boil, you may need antibiotics.

It's a condition, you need to go to a dermatologist and get treatment for it.  I have pretty much the same problem.  I know for the underarms you can get botox that will last for approx 6 months and stop the sweating.  I know how embarrassing it is to walk around with pit marks under your arms in the winter time even, hard to find deodorants that work well, which by the way, I learned that switching back and forth from Dove to Degree helps some, but go to the doctor and see what they can do for you.  It's called hyperhidrosis.  http://www.ineed2know.org/sweating.htm  I hope this all helps and I feel for you, since I am there with you!!!  Good luck!

It would be more helpful to have a better description,but it could possibly be small boils,pimples,excess oil in your hair or excessive sweating may contribute to pimples there. The other person that said ingrown hairs is correct also. And it could possibly be eczema or psoriasis too. If it is bothersome,get it checked out by a dermatologist.

Go see another doctor, the previous one was an idiot. Bumps under your skin isn't somethinga real doctor would just say, "hmm, interesting, but I have no clue. Bye, have a good day."

Yes, go to the hospital!  Even if it is just a boil (doesn't sound like one) it's still big and needs to be taken care of properly.  Why be in pain if you don't have to be?

It sounds like a staph infection.   I have had one,  as per the doctor, you need to keep it draining, this will ease the pain, as well warm moist compresses as often as possible will help it to drain faster.  These are very painful, so take some ibuprofen. Although these can be treated at home. It is best to see a doctor as these can turn into a very serious and contagious condition called MRSA.   You probably need an antibiotic. It is very important to keep your hands washed very thoroughly after touching this, and do not allow the fluid from this to touch anything either. It is my understanding that these are very contagious, even on your body. You may want to go to the doctor if after 3 days, you see no improvement, or ease in pain, especially if you have a fever.

Sounds like you have a virus if its just been recently.  If this occurs often maybe even food poisoning or something you are eating.  You should see a doc if it has occured often

Please schedule an appointment to go to your doctor immediately. No one here, myself included, is qualified to give you an answer. I had a similar problem (in the armpit as well), and it turned out to be a cyst the size of a gumball. It was removed under local anesthetic. My arm was sore for a day or two, and then I was fine. However, I am not implying you have a cyst in your's as well. What I am suggesting is you make a doctor's appt. first thing tomorrow morning.
