Weird skin lesion that's visible from afar - Iblameher - 09-01-2026

For the further away pic, I got my phone for like 160$, the camera doesn't pick up on too much detail so it looks more noticeable irl

However, it's better IRL when it comes to the close up shots

I thought it was this at first too but the texture of my skin doesn't feel smooth and I don't have or am at risk for any of the causes AFAIK

Texture is rough and scale-like

Yeah I have this also in areas difficult to remember to wash

thats weird and you have small ish fore arms

it looks like dirt, but i understand why you would think it was something  biological because you are brown

trying warm water and soap could get rid of it


RE: Weird skin lesion that's visible from afar - sinn - 09-01-2026

if that doesn't work then try 6g of aspirin a day split into two, with 8g baking soda 2x 4g

It's not grime, I did try to wash it off with soap and a cloth and it wouldn't budge. It doesn't itch or flake or anything 

Also reason I think it's a lesion is because I've never had such a thing anywhere else on my body until this lesion which came around late 2023 + it's only on my left arm

yikes

you need alcohol, hot water and smth that can cause friction, like your nails... to remove that
i think thats pretty normal its just smth to do with keratinocytes going haywire, so a benign dermatose...
