Ellis
Ellis is a skin condition characterized by small, pale or flesh-colored bumps, often appearing on the arms, thighs, or buttocks. These bumps are caused by the buildup of keratin, a protein that protects the skin, which blocks the hair follicles. The exact cause isn’t fully understood but may be linked to factors like dry skin, genetics, or friction. While they are harmless and often asymptomatic, some people seek treatment for cosmetic reasons. Management includes gentle exfoliation and moisturizing; in more persistent cases, dermatologists may suggest treatments like topical creams or laser therapy.
