Keratosis pilaris, commonly known as chicken skin.
Visited the dermatology clinic and gathered various health information.
I saw some relief while searching.
I would like to share five daily life rules.
I have had severe keratosis pilaris since childhood.
It was especially severe during my teenage years.
Clothing with short sleeves that exposes the arms during the summer season
Because there was so much, I was under a lot of stress.
When I see my friends, everyone's arms are smooth.
I thought only I looked really ugly and rough.
Keratosis pilaris follows the pores on the arms or legs.
A small bump appears externally.
It is a condition that shows skin resembling chicken skin.
Most of the time, it is hereditary.
I think it's because I resemble my dad.
Is it because of hormonal influence during adolescence?
Keratosis pilaris was a bit more severe.
Maybe it's because I keep worrying and stressing over it.
The area around the pore is red or bleeding, like an octopus.
It was getting worse and worse, and I think I was suffocating.
I also went to the dermatology clinic.

Usually, there are cases where it improves when becoming an adult.
They say to do enough moisturizing.
You just said it.
After becoming an adult, I followed the doctor's advice.
Keratosis pilaris has slightly improved.
It wasn't to the point of completely disappearing, though.
Even in summer, I wear long sleeves when it's severe.
So I don't squeeze or pick at it.
The area affected by keratosis pilaris becomes red or rough.
Did not do it.
Even if keratosis pilaris is hereditary,
Because it appears to be skin that looks like a woman's.
I just can't give up.
I also went back to the dermatology clinic.
