So, I went to the trash dump a bit ago, which is manned by a county employee. He was inquiring as to whether I was throwing cardboard in the cardboard receptacle, of course I was, I can read..(although once they switched places which was a problem).but anyway, He was sitting on the chair watching the drop offs and I noticed his arm which had the most horrible skin condition I have ever seen. They looked like giant raised bumps all over his skin..I do not even know what it was. I thought maybe boils, or carbuncles but they look red in pictures. Anyway, it was really unsightly. I felt sorry for him..if I had even a hint of that I would be living in dermatologists office. Poor guy...Have you seen any really bad skin conditions?

I like to fast forward through doctor pimple popper sometimes. Yesterday i saw a segment where a man had rough and raised skin on his hands. Not red or blotchy from what I could tell. I don't think I've seen anything too bad, maybe some pigmented skin on the face of someone once.

@snowy22315 I was reading a book not too long ago with a character that had that on their face. Of course, you can't always believe fiction, but the doctor in that story said the pigmentation had a chance of returning full force.

My old boss had weird rashes on his body. They've been trying lots of medication for it. His wife said it's from his heart meds.

I know a lady who has sort of skin tags all over her arms and hands. I don't know what you'd call her condition.

@JudyEv I’ve gotten a few very tiny ones over the years I snip them off with nail clippers. I know my father in law gets big ones he has removed at the doctors.

It is probably not a condition, just skin tags. Those are easy to remove these days. It sounds like she should get it done.

Yes, it looked awful. If I had that, I would be wearing long sleeves when it is 95!

It is possible. It didn't look like burns, although maybe he was exposed to something I don't know.

I am not sure what condition gives you raised bumps like that, but it was awful.
