Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Based on the images (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity) and description, you have a condition known as keratosis pilaris. It is a common condition in which small rough bumps on the skin can sometimes be associated with itching. This is not curable but can be managed effectively. I suggest you do the following:

1. Regularly use lactic acid or salicylic acid base lotions and body washes.

2. Exfoliate your skin once a week.

3. Apply a good amount of moisturizer daily.

4. Use mild soaps for bathing.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
