skin care

I went to my dermatologist today. I am fair-skinned and prone to various skin anomalies. Nothing dangerous, but there's always some bump or growth that I want an expert to look at.

The dermatologist examined, poked, prodded, and biopsied various bumps and spots on my body. He also offered some advice: I am beginning to develop "old guy skin." The bumps and spots will become more common in the years to come, and I will need to be more diligent about regular checkups and sun care.

Sigh

I had (before it went white) flaming red hair and VERY white skin with all the associated problems. I am much older than you but the flaking, bumps and growths that you mention have never caused any problems (as my doctor recently assured me) and in fact they come and go. Play it cool. Roderick
