Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pimple around belly,legs,and arms near armpit which is because of abundance of sebaceous gland sin this region and which once gets blocked with sebum, bacteria cause these symptoms. I would suggest you not to prick or touch pimples , exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin and bacteria's, wash these areas with mild soap twice a day ,avoid over exposure to sun and use over the counter ointment containing benzoyl peroxide which is very effective and azelaic acid .If condition persist 10 days after adopting above method then consult dermatologist for proper evaluation of your condition. You should avoid moisture in these areas.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
