Chronic Mini Bumps

img_3521_21

These flesh colored mini bumps can drive people crazy.

Here are some observations I have made about them over the years:

1) They are more difficult to extinguish than people originally expect.

2) Humidy often times makes them worse. I used to call them humidity bumps on myself many years ago. (I’ve experienced many variations of this relentless condition)

3) They often times fail all standard acne treatments. (i.e. don’t be baffled if you have failed everything for these bumps)

4) They are almost universally downplayed by others. (have them read the post called “control issues” if they can’t understand)

5) They are often times misdiagnosed as anything but plain old acne. When frustrated by failure, patients and doctors start creating new diagnoses for plain old stubborn conditions.

Here’s a major case study of an acne variation I like to call “Mini Bumps”
(Possibly the first and only case study of its kind. View Full Screen.)

    Thank You for posting this. Mini bumps are acne too and they have the same emotional toll. I am so happy to see minibumps are controllable. wow! amazing! I have a question about acne “icepick” scarring and other scarring. How do you deal with those type of after affects?
