Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Keratosis Pilaris And Pityriasis Alba?
Hi! I have two skin conditions. One is pityraisis alba and the other is keratosis pilaris. I am so erked and just tired of my skin and I am getting very self conscious now to be honest. I have had both skin conditions since a yound age. I am 17 years old now, will my pityraisis alba ever go away and is there anything I could do to make it look less visible without cosmetics?
From your description, I am of the opinion that UV-B rays application over pityriasis alba and pigmenting agents topical application will help you to reduce alba and thus your stress levels too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashish Ranjan, General & Family Physician
