Dry patch on leg that never goes awy.
18/F
Ever since I was about 5-7 years old I've had this line of dry, bumpy skin on my leg that has never gone away. I have no idea what it is and I've just grown to ignore it.
It's of flaky and never itchy, does anyone have any idea with wha it could be? Lotion doesn't help it.

We aren't doctors so please don't think our advice is the gospel or a replacement for medical diagnosis. I KNOW you probably don't but there are others reading this so I'm putting that disclaimer out first.
The thing is you have had the issue since you were 5-7-years-old. You can pretty much rule out it being some dread disease or something that's going to kill you any time soon.
You've seen countless doctors in that time who have likely seen every last inch of your body in medical exams. If they've never said anything it's likely nothing of that level of concern.
Also, your mother may know more than you do about what it is and why its there. Ask her about it and tell her you have been worried over it for some time and would like an answer from a doctor when you next see one. I think all that's needed is an okay from them.
