Exclamation new with KP & hating it

So I've always had these weird bumps on my legs . . they are kind of reddish, not TOO many but enough to make me feel uncomfortable and enough to be noticed by others. I never went to the doctor for them because I didn't know what I'd say and everytime I thought about going I didn't find time to go.

So i guess you could say i don't have a "certain" diagnosis.. but I'm pretty certain this is what it is. Sometimes when I squeeze certain "bumps" this weird pus comes out which is hard to describe because it's not like pimple-pus and sometimes a hair "pops" out which is also weird. I know you're not supposed to squeeze them but it's hard not to and I don't do it that often anyway.

From what I've said .. would you think this is KP? I'm pretty sure it is. I don't know what to do about it. Since I've never gone to the doctor or known what it was for sure until recently ..I always had hope that someday they will go away or that I will be given a cream and they will go away ..but then I came here and read about it and found out there is no cure.. and I'm kind of at a loss. There are SO many different things that could work. . and so many different things to try . .I could spend my lifetime doing them and never find out what works to make it go away. .

I guess it just sucks.

BTW, i'm 19.

Most of us have tried everything. I've personally tried the product in the link and it worked no better or worse than anything else (which isn't saying much).
