dots on forehead - #13969

Rhea

I am really worried about these weird dots on my forehead that popped up outta nowhere. Like a month ago, I noticed one little dot and shrugged it off, but then they just started multiplying. Now there’s like five or six of them and they’re not going away! They don't itch or hurt, but they kinda look like small raised bumps. I tried looking it up, and some sites say it could be a skin condition, but other stuff mentions it could just be acne or something. The thing is, I’m usually pretty clear-skinned, and it’s like, what changed, you know? I went to a dermatologist last week, and they just kinda looked at me and said it could be seborrheic keratosis, but I’m like, what does that even mean? Do you guys think it's serious? Should I be super worried about these dots on my forehead? Is there any chance they could hurt my skin in the long run? I keep thinking about how much more will show up, or if I should try some treatments myself. Don't want it to get worse! What do you all think?
