Re: lating to thread on old board, regarding pimply things on thighs.

I get these on my inner thighs, around my armpits, and sometimes in my armpit. They are very painful at times and I think they are gross. I do have a few scars from them. I have showed them to my doctor but she told me it wasn't anything that I needed to worry about, such as an std or something like that. I am in the process of being tested for insulin resistance. Does anyone know of anything I can do about these now? Please let me know on this board or email me at cc98_1999@yahoo.com. Thank you.
