Question Hello
I have a 9 year old son that has had small bumps on his
arms, legs and bottom for years. Usually bumps have a hard
core if you squeeze them, although sometimes they are puss
filled. Occasionally some will become very inflamed and pus
filled like a large pimple. Today I noticed one on his
back. What could be causing this on such a young child? I
started noticing this at age 4 but no doctor has ever been
able to help him with it.
Answer Perhaps is keratosis pilaris.
