skin issues
I have always had good skin but the past few months I have had some issues.
My face actually feels rough to the touch. And I have bumps all over my upper arms. I used to get some on the back of my armms but these are all over. They don't itch, but they feel rough too.
Is this normal post pregnancy? Should I see a dermotologist? Or does anyone have any over the counter recommendations?
Re: skin issues
I chalk all ridiculous skin changes up to stupid, stupid hormones.
Do you ever exfoliate? I'd get a an exfoliating scrub and body scrub too and some good moisturizers, and try that first for a few weeks. If it still persists, then I'd call the dermatologist.

Is it this? I have it. Try a lotion with lactic acid. I think exfoliating makes it worse.
Maggie has bumps too, but the pedi says its eczema, so is that a possibility?

kristen, it looks just like the link you sent me.
ryker has exzema and i thought that could be it too, but it's not itchy and i thought exzema was.
exfoliating hasn't helped. i'll try the lactic acid.
cetaphil cleared ryker's right up, but no luck with me. i didn't try it on my face though because i was worried it would cause me to break out.
and my face just feels rough, but you cannot see anything.
Mine is not itchy. Just rough/bumpy kind of on the back of my upper arms.
Connor has gotten it on his stomach and legs too.
I use nothing but cetaphil on my face now. I could kick myself for all the money I spent on expensive stuff.
I have excema and it has always itched. The only thing that has helped is an Rx steriod cream.
I use Cetaphil normal to oily skin formula every night on my face and my skin has never looked better.
