ill just call myself itscherry for future reference.
jve already looked at the dermatology atlas and other book that the actual dermatologists study from. and i will agree that at first i was drawn to the acne pics. but also follicullitus Pityrosporum had a similar look, but my bumps are not as red they have more a skin color at first, then get red by sitting so long and the filling inside starts to push on my skin. which also led to me looking at keritosis p pics. what i can tell you, is mine is contagious, leaving out the kp and the acne. folliculitus p is cuased by a yeast wich they say is also not contagious. the others who caught this only have very few bumps on them, and they tend to heal quickly, possibly thier immune system is stonger and their skin is more resiliant than mine. if i hadnt had the major explosion of bumps i did, and had as few as they do, i wouldnt have noticed any of this to begin with, and just shrugged it off to the occasional pimple. so if you have family of people you are close to , examine them. an as for your cyst, i also looked at that option, the fact that when you take the ball out it comes back, same principal as a cyst, if you dont remove it all it will grow back. here are the derm. books answers for multiple cysts...first they ask, is the lesion solitary, or multiple...we chose multiple...secondly is it localized(A localized rash is present only on one area of the body.) generalized(A generalized skin rash is widespread, covers most of the body or is found on several parts of the body concurrently-(occurring at the same time). It may appear in the same place on both hands, feet, arms or legs, or across the back and torso) we chose generalized...here we chose the type of bump macular (A macular rash is a skin rash which presents in the form of a number of small, flat red spots,a skin eruption in which the lesions are flat and less than 1 cm in diameter0 or papular (A small, solid, usually inflammatory elevation of the skin that does not contain pus,referring to one or more small solid rounded bumps rising from the skin that are each usually 0.5 cm or less in diameter (less than a half inch across)The term "papular" is derived from Latin from "papula," a pimple -- pimply). so we go to papular which gives these answers if you are looking to call what you have a cyst...

THIS IS WHAT I KNOW, OUT OF ALL THE DOCTORS AND DERMATOLOGISTS IVE SEEN, I DONT HAVE A SINGLE ANSWER. SO WHY ARNT THEY TESTING TO SEE WHATS GOING ON. IF WE WERE ANYONE ELSE, FAMOUS OR RICH, WE WOULD KNOW SOMETHING MORE THAN WE DO RIGHT NOW.
TRY KEEPING A JOURNAL OF CHANGES OR THINGS THAT YOU NOTICE, ANY PATTERNS ETC..
IF WE ALL HAVE MORE INFORMATION, WE CAN FIGURE THIS THING OUT A LITTLE BETTER THAN WE HAVE TO DATE.
SO FAR I KNOW IT ISNT INFLUENCED BY TANNING OR NOT BEING IN THE SUN
I KNOW IT HAS A MONTHLY PATTERN
I KNOW THERE IS NO PUSS OR LIQUID
I KNOW A SELECT ANTI BIOTIC WORKS, WHERE OTHERS DONT(CERTAIN ANTI BIOTICS ONLY WORK FOR CERTAIN BACTERIAS)
I KNOW MY SKIN PEALS AND FLAKES RIGHT WHEN THE BUMPS START COMING BACK
I KNOW IM SICK OF ALL THIS
I KNOW IT SCARS YOUR FACE(MY SCARS ARE EXTROVERTED INSTEAD OF BEING INVERTED...SO THEY STILL LOOK LIKE A BUMP AND NOT A SCAR FORM NORMAL ACNE, LIKE A HOLE)
MY PORES HAVE BECOME LARGE ALL OVER MY FACE
THE HARD STUFF EVEN COMES OUT OF MY HAIR, BUT MY HAIR GROWS SO FAST THAT THE MATERIAL JUST SITS ON MY SCALP, AND DOESNT MAKE A BUMP. I DID LOSE HAIR AT MY AT MY HAIR LINE ON MY FACE WHERE THE BUMPS WERE ABLE TO TAKE OVER MY SKIN THERE AND MOVE SLOWLY INTO MY HAIR.
I TRIED NEEM OIL AND IT WORKED ONCE BUT THEN DIDNT ANOTHER TIME
IVE TRIED CREAMS(PERSCRIPTION) AND NON PERSCRIPTION...NOTHING IS WORKING
I CAN TELL YOU WHAT ITS NOT, BUT I CANT TELL YOU WHAT IT IS...AWSOME RIGHT
IM DEPRESSED HALF THE TIME
I HATE GOING OUT FOR PEOPLE TO LOOK AT ME
WISH I HAD A PLACE TO POST PICS...SO WE COULD ALL COMPARE THIS CRAP... MAYBE WE SHOULD WORK ON DOING JUST THAT
