So I've had these dots on my arms (and a bit on my face and legs) ever since I can remember. They are not itchy, or irritating, or anything; it just looks really bad. :/ I tried using body scrub but it only makes it worse (turns red). I put on lotions and moisturizers daily; doesn't help. I told my doctor, and she said it is "extremely dry skin". Do any of you have this or know about this problem?

I have heard about it. Drink heaps of water. That helps.

I have it too! It sucks! It's called keratosis pilaris. I could write a ton about it but it's probably easier to just let you google it. Hope this helps! (:
