Keratosis pilaris, a skin condition characterized by small, chicken-skin-like bumps, may be caused by various factors such as dryness and excessive buildup of dead skin cells. It is recommended to keep the skin clean and use gentle exfoliating products, avoiding over-cleansing to prevent worsening symptoms. Maintain skin hydration by choosing moisturizing skincare products with good hydrating effects. Additionally, pay attention to dietary adjustments and increase intake of foods rich in vitamins. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice promptly and follow professional treatment instructions. Avoid using unverified medications on your own, as this may further burden the skin.
