        I'm not a dermatolgist but this may be a seborrheic keratoses.  My husband has many and they are of no concern to his dermatologist.

             My husband has the same. The derm just says "leave them alone".  Get it checked, of course, but I don't think it is anything to worry about.

            Thanks for your replies. It makes me feel a little better. Ill still try to get a second opinion from another dermatologist just to be sure.
