It could be lichen nitidus, phrynoderma , lichen spinulosus, keratosis pilaris, keratosis circumscripta or a manifestation of darier disease. Without proper examination and assessment of the skin condition it is not possible to comment on the exact cause. Please get the condition properly assessed by a qualified certified dermatologist. Hope this is helpful.
