What you are describing good possibility keratosis pilaris. However without a proper examination it is not possible to say with certainty. Without knowing the diagnosis it is also not possible to advise treatment. You can probably read about this condition and compare your situation with the images available regarding this condition. You can meet a dermatologist directly or consult online with pictures. I hope this is helpful.
