I have small "spots" on my legs and arms (especially on my knees)! HOW to get rid of them?

Question

Even if I shave my legs they're never really smooth because of those irregular THINGS on my skin!! Theyre not really spots cause they arent red... at times they have white heads but most of them are just BEIGE and annoying! Is there body cream against those spots? Until now I have only heard of facial ones... THANKS for helping!!!:)

Answer 1

Hydrocortisone cream.  If they turn red at any point, use lidocaine (it is in most sunburn meds).

Best of luck.

Answer 2

You're likely to have a condition called keratosis pilaris, it affects half the world's population, especially young adults. You can't cure them, unfortunately, but you can treat them so they look less noticeable. Here are some links to show you how you can treat them:

Ummmmmm its probably ingrown hair. I used to have these and within the first few months of shaving they still wouldnt go away.  Depending on how long you have been shaving they should go away. Make sure you are applying plenty of lotion.
