Anyone have any experience of keratosis pilaris in children?

I know there's no cure, but ds1 (9) now won't wear tshirts or shorts because of the condition. It's not a huge deal in the big scheme of things, but wondered if anyone has had experience of this, and if ANYTHING will help?

Aaagh, am about to fall off front page. Ah well, was worth a shot. May bump tomorrow....night!

There was a thread about this recently. Someone swore by cream which had (I think) urea in it. It began with E. Can't remember the name - sorry - but they def. had it in our local Lloyds chemist and it was the only one beginning with E and with urea as one of the components! Helpful, aren't I!?

Oh hang on, Eucerin. Here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/138/523719?pg=2
