ABOUT THE CONDITION
Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition that causes dry, rough patches and tiny bumps, usually on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks or buttocks. These small bumps or pimples often appear red, which is a result of an accumulation of dead cell material and a buildup of keratin — a hair protein — in the pores and plugging the hair follicles.
CAUSES
The exact causes of keratosis pilaris are unknown, but it is commonly associated with:
- Genetics
- Atopic eczema
- Skin dryness
- Puberty
- Pregnancy
