Goosebump skin on hands-itchy
My lower arm skin looks like goosebumps texture. At first I thought it is due to waxing but I have been waxing since many years and I started to have this problem since two years. I have used epilator once and that might have caused to trigger the issue. Now, this is causing itching occasionally turning the skin into bumpy red texture. Especially during night times, it is very itchy. I'm applying petroleum gel which is keeping itchiness a little under control.
Please suggest me the creams that I should use , the root cause of the problem and what this condition is called as. Thank you .
