Hyperkeratosis or thickening of the skin

Follicular hyperkeratosis is a skin condition in which hair follicles become clogged with keratin (a protein normally found in skin, hair, and nails), resulting in small, rough bumps. The bumps can be seen on the arms, legs, thighs, buttocks, and even the face. Hyperkeratosis can develop due to impaired exfoliation (natural exfoliation) of the skin or can be inherited from a parent. This defect may cause concern, but it is not dangerous at all and may only be visually bothersome. Now we will tell you about the treatment of hyperkeratosis and its causes.
