Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Im a 21 yr old male and I two questions about my body of which im not sure if their normal. First question is that and i have small pimple size bumps on half of the skin of my. As far as i can remember ive had that since i was 10-12 yrs old. It has never given me any pain or itch.( i have a theory as why i have that but not sure if it makes sense on a medical level) My other question is that my my lower ribs protrude from my body. Ive also had this condition since i could remember. I questioned my physician once several years ago but he said it was normal. Im 5 8 -5 8 tall and weigh 128-135lbs
Which coloured are those bumps ?If they are tiny & of same ot darker than your skin tone & not protruding then it would be so called dermatosis papula nigra Same thing morgan freeman has.& if it doesn't bother you cosmetically you shouldn't worry about it.and about protruding ribs i think it may be due to your low weight that you are feeling that its protruding but still get your vit d3 level done Thanks to contact hcm
