Chicken Skin
Chicken skin, medically known as keratosis pilaris, is a common and harmless skin condition. It causes small, rough bumps, usually on the arms, thighs, cheeks, or buttocks. Chicken skin occurs when keratin clogs hair follicles. Moisturisers and exfoliation can improve symptoms, though there is no cure.
