whats this!?

[RebeccaRHY1]

So This just appeared on my back a week or so ago. Its raised and dry and flaky.. Doesnt itch or hurt or anything.. What could it be? And why would it randomly appear
Thanks

[RebeccaRHY1]

Oh its probably between 1-1.5 centimetre circle

How old are you? The reason I ask is that I've got a couple. Went straight to the GP, he assured me it was my age! Bastard! Every single time I've been in the last few years, he tells me it's an age thing. Git is only about 30 too!

It looks like eczema to me. Could be wrong though.

[RebeccaRHY1]

Im 29
I thought maybe exzema too but the rest of my skin isnt dry and it doesnt itch like eczema would?!?

[MaureenMLove]

Oops, that's me told! Obviously 29 is a fabulous age and I'm sure your not a git like my doctor!

Seriously though, I do have exactly the same and he told me it was nothing to worry about. Even gave me some websites to look at with the proper name of them, but I can't remember what it was.

Google guttate psoriasis. Have you had a sore throat recently?

[AuditAngel]

I also thought Psorasis, although I haven't heard of that type of psoriasis

[MissSmiley]

Impetigo?

[MummySparkle]

I was going for psoriasis too - DP often has pitches like that on his back

[AJ279]

I have psoriasis and it looks exactly like this- i have a lot more than that but it can sometimes form from a cut or scratch if you've had any damage to the skin in that area?

[MaureenMLove]

Did you see the doctor about this Rebecca? Just interested in the outcome really.

[Tingitangi]

Looks like impetigo to me. You need to get to the Doc either way.
