Exercise helps. Not only is exercise good for KP, it keeps you in shape and feeling heathly. I am one of those people who has tryed lots of things to cure KP but nothing seemed to work for me. Sure some things may have appeared to work, but the KP just kept on coming back. The one thing that seemed to keep it away is regular exercise and lots of water. I went to my docter about it at first and she told me that it was hereditary, and that KP on most people seems to come and go. It can be bad some weeks and can almost look like it's going another. That was how mine was appearing. Then I started exercising regularly and now it seems to be staying away. I hope it's for good! Well, I hope my advice helps people, it's worth a try. Exercise and drink water.
Good luck!

I tryed exercising and it is starting to help. In the beginning I was just exercising to help KP, then I found that I liked both the results for my KP and for my body. I started feeling better about myself and the way I looked. It really helped me since I didn't really feel to confident about myself before,with KP all over. Now I feel great. The KP is alot better, though still visible. Thank you. Lisa

Great advice! It's certainly worth a try... it's free and cannot do any harm, either! I know mine was almost gone when I was in highschool and very active/athletic.

I am new to this site (my kp has just flared up and I was desperate) and I realized that I have not been on my exercise routine for the last few weeks....I have to agree that it seems like exercise does improve it a lot. Guess I better head back to the gym.

Exercise didn't seem to help me when I was younger. I used to compete in Scottish Highland dancing and I had classes once a week plus competitions. That was when the kp was the worst.Maybe it will help now that I am older. I started walking every other day because I sit all day at work.
