Ever heard of keratosis pilaris??

I have these bumps all over my arms and legs and when I researched them, they were called keratosis pilaris. I've looked for solutions to get rid of them, but it's very hard to find stuff that REALLY works. summer is getting nearer, and i NEVER get to wear short sleeve shirts and shorts because I'm so embarrassed. please help?

Ever heard of keratosis pilaris??
People say you can't cure it. But theres a lotion that really helps and specializes in Keratosis Pilaris and other problems from pores being plugged up with excess keratin. Its called Amlactin, you can ask a pharmacist and get it. I get mine at Costco and Fred Meyer stores just off the shelf. You don't need a prescription to get it anymore. After I applied the lotion to my arms everyday, after a week they went away. You should try it. Nothing else for me worked before except for this. Its about $16 for a 16 oz. bottle that lasts forever. You only need to apply a tiny bit. You can search for it on the internet and see what people say about it, its really helped me! :)

Reply:Try a product called KP Duty by DermaDoctor. KP Duty was shown to statistically improve the clinical findings of Keratosis Pilaris, including skin hydration and smoothness while also targeting the inflammation and redness.

Reply:There is no miracle solution - this problem is really hard to get rid of, and there aren't any treatments that are guaranteed to work. You can try all the different medications to see if one works - maybe there's some you haven't tried yet. You might consider seeing a dermatologist. Just in case there is a treatment you haven't tried, here's a few web links that have good info.





Otherwise, you may just need to overcome the embarrassment - it probably seems worse to you than it does to other people. If people even notice your skin, they will probably think you have sunburn or some allergic reaction - not really a big deal. For some people exposure to sunlight causes the condition to improve, so wear whatever you want and don't think about your skin..
Reply:Its a common skin condition characterized by small, pointed bumps, especially on the back and sides of the upper arms.
