A member asked:
Can skinny people tend to feel lumps and bumps i am skinny and have health anxiety and can feel loads of them and i'm always worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many slender people can palpate skin & subcutaneous lumps&bumps easier than those with prominent subcutaneous fat layers. If you have health anxiety about this, don't hesitate to schedule skin checkups with your physician or dermatologist every 6 months and as needed in between. Many people do this for reassurance.
