We’ve all been there—you spot a little lump or bump on your skin, and suddenly, you’re playing detective.
Is it a mole, a wart, or maybe something else entirely?
The truth is, these small skin changes can be a little unsettling, but don’t worry—help is at hand.
At PURE Holistic Beauty, your local award-winning salon with locations in Netley and Warsash, Southampton, we’re passionate about skincare. With our Skincare Specialists and blemish removal experts, we’ve seen it all and helped clients transform their skin with expert advice and treatments.
Let’s dive into everything you need to know about lumps and bumps—what they are, why they happen, and how to address them.
What Causes Skin Lumps and Bumps?
Lumps and bumps on your skin can appear for a variety of reasons. Whether it’s a buildup of dead skin cells forming a cyst, a mole caused by overactive skin cells, or a pesky skin tag, these growths are usually harmless.
But that doesn’t mean you have to live with them! At PURE Holistic Beauty, our blemish removal experts can help assess and treat these concerns so you can feel confident in your skin.
Here’s a quick guide to some common skin lumps and bumps:
- Warts and Verrucas:
- What they are: Contagious lumps caused by viruses.
- Where they show up: Warts are common on hands and feet, while verrucas are usually found on the soles of your feet.
- How they feel: Verrucas can be painful when pressed or walked on.

FAQs About Skin Bumps
1. Can lumps and bumps be prevented?
Prevention depends on the type of skin growth. Regular exfoliation and using gentle, natural moisturisers like aloe vera or coconut oil can help. But if they do appear, don’t worry—we’re here to help.
2. What are the bumps on the back of my arms?
This might be keratosis pilaris, often called “chicken skin.” It’s caused by a buildup of keratin in hair follicles and is harmless but can feel rough. Exfoliation and hydrating creams can help smooth things out. They can be a sign of irritable bowel, so a GP’s appointment can help to identify them.
3. Why do itchy bumps appear on my skin?
Itchy bumps are often caused by dermatitis, eczema, or allergic reactions. Identifying triggers, like certain skincare products, can help.
