Keratosis Pilaris?

Question:

I have white, rough bumps on the outer sides of my arms. They don't itch or hurt, but it's all over the outer sides of my arms. I also have them on my thighs. I looked this up on the internet and I think I may have KP. It doesn't look like mine in the picture but I know there's three different types.

Does my skin condition sound like KP? If so, how can I treat it since there's no cure? I don't think my parents would let me buy the really expensive stuff from Derma Doctor. Please help! I'm so self-conscious about it I never wear shorts and when I wear short sleeved shirts I feel like everyone's staring at it. Please help..

Answers:
Try buying an all natural lufa at the drug store and really pure and natural oil (nutregena makes one) do not use baby oil.
this makes it worse. Do this every day in the shower it should help you.

If it is affecting you to the extent of it harming your physiological state you need to go to a doctor and have it examined for a professional diagnosis.

I have the same thing. The only lotion that I have found that helps me is Curel.The ultra healing formula is best. It seem to really smooth the bumps out. Use it everyday after your shower. Good luck.
