My cat has dry skin and bumps under his front legs. What to do?

Question

My 19 week old cat has dry skin under his front legs, where ano armpit would be on a human. He also has dry bumps leading to his side. What would help that? Should I take him to the vet? I've used organic coconut oil. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | 4 months and 4 days old | 6 lbs

You can try giving Slugger a vitamin E bath or giving him vitamin E supplements in with his food. That may help with his dry skin. I would have him seen by a vet as well for this, who can diagnose what is causing the dry skin and bumps, and can prescribe treatment for him.
