    They could be one of many things, I would suggest maybe pupps but that usually presents in itchy bite bumps and also is accompanied by a welting red rash and is ridiculosly itchy! But it doesn't sound like it, it could be hormonal mini pimples - I had then all under my chin like really close together and a bit irratating they did not pop or anything. Maybe If it really gets irritating go to either a naturopath or a dermatologist?? Good luck! Xx

    Could it be because it's getting colder and the air is dry? I've got really sensitive skin and I find I get similar rashes in winter.

    I've never gotten these before.

    They seem to be alot bigger on the back of my neck..

    I might ask my doctor next time i see him. I'm really all that worried just a bit puzzling as to what they are.

    Pruritic Urticarial Papules and Plaques of Pregnancy, not usually harmful, just annoying.

    Do you use soap? I was advised away from soap (not that we use it anyway) and oatmeal baths helped.
