Small Bumps On Thighs. Treatment?
I have these weird, small bumps on my thighs, a bunch of them. No discoloration, and they don't itch. I'm using the same detergents and soaps that I've used for several years. I have not worn any new clothes, and I haven't shaved in months (I find it uncomfortable, and my husband doesn't mind). My legs are always covered, I don't wear shorts or skirts. They're not really causing me any discomfort, it's just kind of unsightly. Any thoughts on what it could be, and how to treat it?

Hi thanks for writing here.Based on your description ,the small bumps may be cherry angiomas or seborrohic keratosis.Both these are age related problems.tThey are harmless and do not require any treatment.If you are concerned about its appearnce then you can consult a dermatologist who will remove these lesions by cauterisation.Take care.
