A member asked:
I have keratosis pilaris on my legs for about 11 years and it hasnt gone away. is there any natural remedy which could make it less noticeable?

Low dose steroid: Usually, this occurs on the backs of the arms. You could scrub and smooth them with a loofa; but in order to treat the mild inflammation of the follicles directly, you could use an over-the-counter 0.1% hydrocortisone cream on there once or twice a day.
