  2. I don't think you need to be scared for this. That could be Cherry Angiomas, which are harmless lesions due to broken blood vessels in your skin.

    If you post a pic that would be better, as we can't confirm if its a wart or something else. Anyway if they are very small topical applications of retinol agents like tretinoin might solve the problem.

    Black hairy tongue is quite common and harmless condition. Those little bumps on tongue sometime grows and trap foods, bacteria yeast and other things and in the long run its gets stained and gives black color. Casautive factors are oral antibiotics, excess use of coffee, alcohol, smoking, poor oral hygiene, and some times underlying systemic conditions, such as malignancy.

    In most cases good mouth and tongue cleaning will get rid of black hairy tongue. If that doesn’t help, you need to consult dermatologist for some prescription medications.

    No. They’re actually called keratosis pilaris – the cause is unknown, but some claim that it’s a hereditary condition.

    You can soften and help slough off bumps by applying cream containing high urea and salicylic acid. If that doesn’t work, prescription retinoids will help, but it can irritate the surrounding skin. If very irritation or itchy can add mild steroids to the cream to soothe irritation. Apply onto bumps twice a day until they clear up.
