Hi there Leilani. Stress is often implicated in various skin ailments but in your case, going by your description of the lesions, i doubt very much. It will be great to have a visual as most dermatology practice is very visual oriented . Please do use the upload data icon & upload a clear photograph of the lesion on this site or if you want discretion you can use our premium ask-a-doctor & can ask for me by name & upload your photograph there should you desire privacy & discretion. Off the cuff, i do think it could be seborrheic keratoses or more likely viral warts that albeit viral are more likely to spring up suddenly & in a florid manner when stress depresses the immunity. I empathise with you on the separation especially when little kids are concerned...especially with a 3 mth baby. I do hope you have a good social support system. Your name suggests an arabic lineage & in extended familia , support is paramount. Do make an appointment on the ground to see a dermatologist nearest you for definitive diagnosis & wish you good health & happiness! Warm Regds...Dr Praveen Rodrigues MD
