As a 20-year sufferer of keratosis pilaris, the notion of Jergens lotion ad-worthy skin â impossibly smooth, virtually poreless, and preternaturally glowing â has always evaded me. Over time, Iâve grown accustomed to the tell-tale permanent goosebumps on the back of my arms and legs (you might know the term âstrawberry legsâ), as well as accepted the fact that there is no cure for this common skin condition. That being said, Iâve also relished doing what I
can do to manage it, and know that while nothing can banish the bumps forever (at least not yet), there are plenty of ways to lessen symptoms thanks to a spate of innovative products and treatments.

People with venom allergies are more likely to have bone marrow disorder
Researchers at Michigan Medicine found that people with venom allergies are much more likely to suffer mastocytosis, a bone marrow disorder that causes higher risk of fatal reactions.
The team of allergists examined approximately 27 million United States patients through an insurance database - easily becoming the nation s largest study of allergies to bee and wasp stings, or hymenoptera venom. The results, published in the
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, revealed mastocytosis in fewer than 0.1% of venom allergy patients - still near 10 times higher than those without allergies.
