Question : Hello, I have red spots forming down both arms They are more like hypermilogias. Some of them do break and I end up with a scab that lasts way to long. Its only on my arms, but I do worry about liver issues.

have double and tripled checked my whole house, not a single bug. It's not bug bites. As you can see some break open and scab for weeks. I am worrying about my liver. I am a recovering alcoholic, but have been tested every year for Her C. I am vacinated for A & B, plus rabies if that means anything. Had one of the last small pox vaccines given out, as born in Guam. They don't hurt, it's the hematology I am worried about.
