I'm not completely sure if this is the correct category to place this question in, so please feel free to move it wherever it should be!
Ever since I was a kid I always had these little bumps on the upper part of my arm and I think it's probably a touch of keratosis something (what the heck is the name of it!?) Anyways, are there any of you guys here that specialized in dermatology and/or skin care that could give me some pointers on making this a little better for myself? Quite honestly, I don't know much about it at all (if I do, I can't recall it at all).
Thanks so much for your help! I really appreciate it.
LOL -- I can't even imagine having it there :icon_roll
It doesn't really bother me as far as it looks (since you really can't see it at all unless you're right up on me) but I just hate the way it feels when you touch it!
Yeah the feeling, yech. Feels like a bunch of zits that need popped.
How long did it take for that Eucerin to start working noticeably for you Marie?
About 3 weeks was when i noticed it, but it could have been sooner than that. I'd been working a ton of hours, so i was too busy to pay attention and seen just when there was a difference lol.
