How do You Get Rid of Keratosis Pilaris on the Legs and Arms
Everyone has at least a few persistent skin troubles they can’t seem to break up with, no matter how hard they try. Well, I have these pesky little patches of red bumps on the back of my arms and upper thighs that’ve been on the top of my list for years. My mother calls them chicken skin (you’ve probably heard this term), but the proper medical name is keratosis pilaris. Keratosis pilaris is a skin condition that causes patches of tiny rough bumps. These bumps are from built-up keratin (a protein that makes up your hair) blocking the opening of a hair follicle. If you have dry skin, like me, you’re more likely to experience this condition.
Keratosis pilaris, a harmless condition, resulting from build-up of keratin, a protein found in skin. The exact cause for this build-up is unknown. Symptoms of keratosis pilaris include dry and rough patches on the skin, with painless tiny bumps in the affected area. Keratosis pilaris is harmless and does not require any treatment. It often resolves on its own. Treatments, if any, may be aimed at reducing skin dryness.
