Does anyone else get bumpy arms?

[Anonymous]

I get these tiny bumps all down my upper arm. They are not obviously visible, but it's weird to the touch. Lotion does not work. Does anyone get this or know how to fix it?

Google "keratosis pilaris".

I don't believe there is a for sure way to get rid of them. Apparently there are some special lotions that can help minimize them.

If it annoys you that much, you should make an appointment with a dermatologist to see if they can help.

I have it. I don't care enough to get rid of it since my dermatologist says it'll likely never go away.

Oh my god, I know exactly what you mean.. apparently there's some cream that makes them fade? Isn't it called chicken skin or something? Mine goes away when I get a tan in summer hahaha :\

im sorry I don't remember what its called, but my friend is a nurse and said there is like a cream or something for it. go to your doc, they should be able to help

exfoliate and use lotion...that's about all you can do for it. some people go to tanning beds or get out in the sun a couple of times a week to help with it.

Yeah I used to have that, but it kind of went away on its own
