Hi there

 

Do you think that they are irritation from your clothing or friction of some sort? 

 

Some skin care forum members suggest exfoliating with a loofah, shaving your legs with a moisturizing cream, and then moisturizing all over.

 

You could see a dermatologist if you are very concerned about this.

 

Thank you for your question.
