Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis (CARP)


CARP - upper back
 Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis (CARP) - Ok, last obscure one for a while. CARP is a condition of unknown cause. It's more common in skin of color and is characterized by a thickening of the epidermis. Treatments range from creams that exfoliate to minocycline. Can be cosmetically unsettling but is always benign.
