Chicken skin--? Keratitis Pilaris--?

Does anyone have this??   My son who is 16 does but it's gotten worse so not sure if sun, heat, sweat makes it worse.   Using gentle skin cleanser and lotion after shower.  Not sure gooing to the Dr will make a difference.

I've had this for years. I am 48 years old and I remember being in my teen years with it. There have been times in my life that I treated it with urea cream right after getting out of the shower and it seemed to do well. it doesn't bother me to have the "chicken skin" on the back of my arms anymore, so I don't do much other than lotion now just to keep from being dry and itchy.

Thank-you!!    We have been using a gentle cleanser and a lotion for bumpy skin.  It does help.  I also just realized that he was away with his sports team for 2 nights last weekend. I'm sure that soap was very drying and with no lotion caused a 'flare-up' earlier in the week.  It's just something he will have to continue to do for his skin!!
