What Causes Random Goosebumps On Legs And Arms?

Hello Dr.-I also get random goosebumps on my legs and/or arms on occasion. Usually if I rub them down, they go away. I am generally quite healthy, with the exception of being hypothyroid (but that s controlled). Any idea of what the issue might be?

* As per my clinical experience, the random goosebumps on legs and arms seem to be in relation with possible issues of auto immune related subcutaneous deposits of collagenous or fibrous tissue.

* The current levels of thyroid hormone is mandatory to co relate with this finding to guide precisely ahead.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
