Keratosis is a common skin condition where rough, scaly patches form due to sun damage or a buildup of keratin.
These patches often appear on the face, arms, hands, or scalp.
Actinic keratosis, a specific type, can be a warning sign for potential
skin cancer and should be evaluated by a dermatologist.
Treatment options include medicated creams, cryotherapy (freezing), and laser treatments.
If you notice persistent dry, crusty, or rough spots on your skin,
don’t ignore them — early detection and treatment are essential
