My 24 year old daughter has flesh colored bumps mainly down her spine but scattered around her back, upper buttocks and one on her chest. They look almost like moscito bites but don t itch. They just started hurting a litte. It s been a couple days.

Hello,
As per your case history, your daughter is having multiple furuncles. My treatment advice is -
1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an NSAID like ibuprofen for 5-7 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics like levofloxacin, cefadroxil, and azithromycin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
