I have small bumps all over my back and top of my shoulders?

What the hell could I have.? I scratch them and a little white grain comes out of them.
Answer:
They're little zits. I have them too. It's hard not to pick them, it's one of my worst habits. Try a face wash on your back and try your hardest to leave them alone. Nothing to worry about!
Pimples...shower with a friend,get your back scrubbed...
Neutrogena acne bar (soap).
calcium build up. Get a body brush and scrub.
i think it might be pimples or a scatch but ask your doctor for the right anwer.
they are probably just milk bumps. like what babies get after they are born. just use some aloe lotion or some aveeno lotion.
Pimples, get some non-grease acne wash. I should clear up in a few days. Don't eat greasy food, or get to sweaty.
You eat greasy food, 30% gets excreated through your skin when you sweat, hence the pimples.
i have that on my arms. idk what it is... but if you scrub and exfoliate twice a day for two weeks it should clear up if you have oily skin make sure you use the right product... if you have dry skin make sure to put some sort of moiturizer on after exfoliation. hope i could help!
It's called keratosis pilaris. It's a form of atopic dermatitis, or eczema. It's difficult to get rid of...scratching it definitely won't help it. My suggestion is super-hydration with a lotion like Neutrogena's Deep Moisturizer cream or Bag Balm and some mild topical steroid (hydrocortisone works just fine).
Paul T nailed it on the head! That is exactly what it is! my son has this on his tricep area of his arms. we have battled dry skin w/him since he was born. now, let me tell you this. VERY important. this is a dry skin condition. the more you scrub, the WORSE it will get! do NOT use anything abrasive in those areas. no special cleansers, no acne meds, no scrubs, nothing! generously apply moisturizing lotion several times daily. if it itches use lanocaine or hydrocortisone. we have found that the very best lotion for our son is Aveeno sensitive skin lotion. it has colloidal oatmeal in it and it is amazing!!! you can even buy the body wash to use in those areas. Aveeno products are available at Wal-Mart and most drugstores. You may have to look in the area where baby lotions are. Sometimes they stock it there. It is such good stuff that I actually took time to write a letter to the company to express my gratitude when my son was very little. He had a severe problem w/ infant eczema. if it can help w/ that it can definitely help the milder form you have now. u have to be dilligent about using it, but it really has worked for us. just do not scrub, use no soap or use a special cleanser for sensitive skin, and MOISTURIZE!!! (other products that u may also find that help are Cetaphil soap/cleanser, Nutragena bar soap/or liguid body cleanser. these are just WAY more expensive!) good luck, i hope you see a difference quickly.
