Help me what is this ?

White plugs attached to scab

I actually had what I thought was just a bump right behind where my ear is pierced. I thought it was from wearing cheap earrings. So I kept picking it alone day I pulled something similar to that out. Unfortunately I don't really know what caused it

I had it biopsy done it came back as basal cell carcinoma

I have this as acne. Started with getting a Mirena. Cleared 80% after removal. Still get a couple like this monthy year after. At least my back and jaw aren't covered but...still have no clue what it is.

I have been dealing with this same skin issue for over 5 years. First, I want to say I can relate to so many people feeling like they are going insane with the pain & unsightly lesions that keep cycling what feels like a mutation of the skin. My biopsies for cancer have been negative. Staph has been treated with every antibiotic & topical on the planet. One physician came up with the Morgellon disease concept. I am sure many can agree that these white plugs protruding from our wounds are not crawling or waving their heads to strike a pose! WE are not quite insane YET!! We are simply trying to find answers = ( A DEFINITIVE DIAGNOSIS) & a SOLUTION to overcome the mystery of white plugs showing up every day consistently, uninvited for what I call a "Plug Party." Like a murder mystery, for the past 5 years, I have fed them all kinds of potions, internally & externally to try to eliminate them & get a top airing position on Forensic Files. LOL

I have invested hundreds & hundreds of hours researching. My latest exploration is...Has anyone heard of: REACTIVE PERFORATING COLLAGENOSIS? Anyone interested in researching & exploring with me PLEASE share your findings & opinion.

I wish every single one of you dealing with this condition a better day tomorrow. Our physicians mean well. We must be proactive & patient, as their playing field is so very wide in the realm of science & its ongoing mysteries. Looks like it is up to us to solve this one.

With sincere regards & blessings,

I have been saying this too even if it’s a Facebook group that gains power in numbers and puts pressure on like dr. Pimple popper. I’m interested in joining any group for help. It’s been 8 years for me and 1/3 of my back and neck are nothing but scars.
