What Causes Bumps On Upper Torso Inspite Of Being On Cleansing Diet?

default
Posted on Thu, 26 Feb 2015
Question: I have a small cluster (about 15) pimple-like bumps on the upper torso just under the armpit. They do not itch and they are not sore. For the last week I have been on a cleansing diet, all natural foods, no sugar other than what is in small amounts of fruit. Could this cleanse be causing this rash?

I do not think so

Detailed Answer:
Hello Mam!

Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

I understand your concern.I do not think cleansing diet can produce such rashes.Those might just be pimples or cellulitis in case they are not fluid filled.

I would suggest you to use Flagyl gel as topical medication to see if it regresses.If it is not causing any physical or cosmetic discomfort to you then just leave it as it is.In case you see any sort of change in it,please get it checked by a physician.

Hope this helps.Feel free to ask more.
