Your problem could be keratosis pilaris, or acne or contact dermatitis or keratosis follicularis. This can be determined only on an examination. Each one has a different line of management. Rubbing and scrubbing should be avoided. Do not use any form of wax, creams, blades on it. Do not rub lemon, garlic or any other caustic agent on it. You vil require treatment.
