So for the last year or two I've noticed a few spots on my hand. Little black dots, i didn't think that much of them until i got two more on that hand and the one appeared on my other hand. Then 4 popped up on my face, found one on my foot, one on my elbow, then i recently just found one on my butt that one has always been there but i can tell it got bigger. theres probably more. Im terrified 😨. Im currently a 17 year old female. I would go to a dermatologist but my mom doesn't think anything is wrong with me and wont take me to be seen. Idk what to do. I dont want to wait before its too late (probably already is) Ive come to the conclusion tha t i think I have skin cancer

    These sound like Dermatosis papulosa nigra . Do an internet search for some images and descriptions and see if it sets your mind at rest. To see a dermatologist you'll need to be referred by your GP so make an appointment to see your doctor. If you can't get to your GP surgery is there anyone who could give you a lift? If you're at school or college, you could try the college doctor or school nurse - they might be willing to refer you. Good luck.
