Do I have a skin disease??

I definitely think you should get it checked, if nothing else, to put your mind at rest. I, too, doubt it would be cancer, but I must strongly disagree that "you would know if you had skin cancer". That's simply not true, and it's the reason why so many people aren't diagnosed until it's too late.\n\nDo you exercise much, or has the weather changed lately? It could be a bit of prickly heat. I get it from time to time and your description sounds similar to what I experience. If it's prickly heat, in an adult it's usually nothing to worry about and will go away - though the thing that makes me doubt this diagnosis is that it doesn't bother you at all. Prickly heat is often quite irritating, but then, everyone's different.\n\nI really think you need to see your doctor on this one, just to be safe. Not everything that hurts is dangerous - but not everything that's painless is harmless.

i think u should go to a doctor...i have also very small white spots..and according to doctor i have vitiligo...but its not bothering me because its on my legs and very small..but in my opinion don't use anything from the advice or recommendations on net because u can't show your white patches here and there r lots of other things which cause this depend on size colour and different other things so just go to doctor and use whichever he/she recommend for you.\n\nthanks

We need more info.  Are you diabetic or do you have decreased circulation in your legs?  Do you have any calf pain while walking or any pain associated with these lesions?  What ointments has the dermatologist had you use?  What other medications are you on?  Do you keep your body clean in general?  Do they smell? Does the skin around these lesions look normal or is there any discoloration, either around the lesions or to the entire leg?  Do you have any allergies?  Dude, need the info before trying to  help you.

Keep a record of not only what you eat but what you bath  with. My skin is very sensitive and my skin breaks out in a rash only in certain spots. It turned out to be the facial scrub I was using!! If you break out check your record to see if something new has been added or a change in products that you normally use.

Many skin disorders can cause blotching and blemishes.\n\nThe most likely is of course acne, but other skin disorders include: Rosacea, Shingles, Psoriasis, Eczema, Fungal Infections and Skin Rashes.\n\nSome irritable plants, or materials which cause allergic reactions can create rashes.  Dry skin can also create skin problems.\n\nMy suggestion would be to see a dermatologist to know for certain what you are trying to treat.  Many skin problems are treated with OTC meds, but some can require a presciption.\n\nCheck out the website below for more information

It is not likely eczema since that would be itchy.  Can you describe these spots more?  How long have they been present?  What parts of your body are they on?  Have you been sick or ill since these spots occurred?  How big are they?

Depends on the cause of the itch. Do you have a rash, or just itching?

Could be contact dermatitis, nothin to worry about, u get it when somthink irritant touchs the skin, washing powder or soaps. just go to ur doctor and if it is that he will give u some ointment and maybe refer u to a skin doc who will do skin patchs to determine what is causing it. \n\nHope u get better soon.

Ask a certified dermatologist.

You really do need to see a doctor for this, to rule out any serious conditions.  \n\nIt may very well be you are just extra-sensitive to the sun, and to heat.  Some people are, regardless of race.  Also, if you are on any medications, ask your pharmacist if any of them might cause an increased sensitivity to sunlight/heat.\n\nOne reason you need to see a doctor is that a disease called Lupus makes people very sun-sensitive.  There are other symptoms involved as well, and a doctor will be able to tell you if you have it or not.  If you do, it is important to have appropriate ongoing treatment so it doesn't get worse and so that it affects your life as little as possible.  If your doctor determines you do not have lupus, s/he will at the least be able to give suggestions for enduring hot sunny weather more comfortably.

You sound very concerned. Why don't you seek professional help then? Please, don't put your health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect your mind and body. You must consult your doctor or a dermatologist. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)

Well Ashley, I can tell you that I had/have something similar to that. See a doctor. Do you have any excess facial or sideburn hair!? Sometimes it can be a sign of a hormonal disorder. Talk with a doctor, there is a medicine you can take that will help with clearing things up a bit. Good luck!
