Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi thanks for using HCM,
These cluster pimple like lesions on outer aspect of elbow could be PHRENODERMA.
It is due to vitamin A deficiency.
1) Cap vitamin A, Aquasol daily 2 times for 60 days.
2) If these lesions hardened...remove by Radiofrequency cautery
3) Apply Salicylic acid 12% on pimple like lesions morning time.
4) Take vitamin A rich food like coloured vegetables, chicken liver, mango and Papua.
5) Benzoyl peroxide 5% gel night time
will give good result.
