A member asked:
I often break out in pimples either on back or arms, it can last between 30min to 3hours before clearing. what is the cause and treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pimples don't: usually come and go like that. They may be hives, or a reaction to heat or cold with inflammation of the glands in your skin. I would recommend having your doctor check them. If you can't get to the doctor while they are still present, try taking a photo and bring it with you to your appointment.
