MEMORANDUM ***

Raymond Leon Johnson, a California state prisoner, appeals pro se from the . district court’s judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal for failure to state a claim under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). Nat’l Ass’n for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis v. Cal. Bd. of Psychology, 228 F.3d 1043, 1049 (9th Cir. 2000). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Johnson’s action because Johnson’s factual allegations and the attachments to the operative complaint show that Reddy did not act with deliberate indifference to Johnson’s skin condition or back pain. See Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 837, 114 S.Ct. 1970, 128 L.Ed.2d 811 (1994) (a prison official is deliberately indifferent only if he or she “knows of and disregards an excessive risk to inmate health”); Toguchi v. Chung, 391 F.3d 1051, 1058-60 (9th Cir. 2004) (neither a mere difference of opinion concerning the course of treatment nor negligence in diagnosing or treating a medical condition amounts to deliberate indifference); see also Nat’l Ass’n for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis, 228 F.3d at 1049 (in determining whether a complaint states a claim for relief, “we may consider facts contained in documents attached to the complaint”).

AFFIRMED.
