Stucco keratosis
by merciles33, May 14, 2008 04:47AM
My legs are covered in small raised spots. They are flesh colored and flat. Both of my lower legs, ankles and feet are totally covered in these things. They look identical to photos I have seen of stucco keratosis. Is there any treatment for this condition? I have been applying Amylactin lotion to my legs for a couple of months to try to soften or diminish them, but so far, no luck. Any advice?

You cannot make a definite diagnosis by looking at pictures. It would be ebst to consult a skin specialist and get a proper clinical examination done to find out the cause of your symptoms.
'Stucco keratosis is a keratotic papule that is usually found on the distal lower acral extremities of males.
Different methods or a combination of methods can be used to remove the lesions. The most common methods in practice are liquid nitrogen therapy and curettage.'
