Pimples?

Hey everyone!

I have a really odd question ...

Has anyone gotten more pimples in odd places since your surgery?

I've been getting them on my arms! Isn't that strange ?!

And they last a while too ... Just unsure why now?

Any info ? Any advice ?

Thanks Guys!

    I got a really rough patch of lizard skin on my shins and upper arms. It finally went away.

    If anything, I've had drier skin post-surgery.

    I have been thinking this for weeks! I just assumed it was me. I am getting them on my arms, my sides, and the occasional one on my face.

    The whiteheads are what I am seeing the most of right now on my arms. I have resorted to using my wife's scrunchy/loofa thing on my arms. Bizarre.
