Do you have chicken skin on your arms?

[Josht11]

Just found out what these weird bumps are on the backs of my arms (never really cared) apparently it's Keratosis Pilaris commonly known as chicken skin here's an example I'd say my arms are about as bad as this

Apparently it affects 40% of adults so surely lots of you should have it.

Yes

No

I used to have it on my legs pretty badly and when I was pale it was more noticeable. However when I got into my 20's it went away. I think it's because I only put organic things on my body but yea. I think it's a autoimmune disease , not sure though

I used to have it, not as bad as the picture but it was still very visible, but then I started using coconut oil (it was initially just an experiment) on my arms and it got way better to a point where you hardly still notice it now!

[Josht11]

I need to try that cos my arms are bright red with these spots.

[Jxpxtxr]

I can testify it worked real wonders for me!

I have a very mild case of that in some spots. My sister has it a bit more than me. It's not real uncommon or anything.

[akadatank44]

I have them. Mine fade in the summer. I was a lotion call Amlactin. It has a certain acid in thats suppose to help. Also I know people use coconut oil. Never tried that

[Jaden69]

yea i have it. They were more noticeable when I was skinnier. It's whatever now but my diet is better too.

[Raymond_Reddington]

yep i have it. just not as severe as that. its barely noticeable in my case.

[Josht11]

Damn my arms are like bright red from all these spots.

[Kiwedin]

I don't have it, but my dad and most of my family does. I got my mom's genes I guess.

Head and Shoulders (original) shampoo as a bodywash helps reduce KP!

[Mustachekitteh]

Yep I have them but not as much as that dude in the picture.

[stillagoodgirl]

No but there's a guy in one of my classes who does. I haven't seen anyone else who does

[Josht11]

It is a rash and it does itch at least for me sometimes.

[rgb008]

Nope.

[Josht11]

That's lucky.

[carlitoswayy]

Dont have that..

Does it itch?

[Josht11]

Well it is known as a rash and I do scratch there more than normal so it looks even redder.

[electromagnetic]

No. I have it on my knee cap.

[aliceinwonderland69]

Mildly but I didn't know it had a name.

[Remembermyname4]

No, I don't see that on my arms.

[takumii]

I dont , They look horrible though no offence.

[Josht11]

Non taken, I don't really mind I'd rather no have it cos it is a rash as well and my arms are pretty red

[Iron_Man]
