Hello XXXXXXX
Thank you for posting your query on Healthcare Magic.
I appreciate your concern regarding your skin condition and i will try to answer your query in best possible way.
Though you are saying you are suffering from Keratosis pilaris, there are many such dermatological disorders that mimic the morphology and appearance and thus the definitive diagnosis and management rests upon a proper clinical examination by a dermatologist.
I would like to insist you to post your clinical photographs on follow up so that i can help you in a better way.
I would also like to ask you few leading questions which can help me narrow down the diagnosis :
1. History of similar condition in your family?
2. History of excessive dry skin during childhood?
3. History of exacerbation in winter months?
4. Areas of involvement?
5. Any systemic complains?
Hope you will revert back soon with the details asked for and good quality pictures.
Thank you
Dr Hardik Pitroda
