Answers:
The best way to make it stop is to get rid of the little pimples you are picking at. You probably have a bit of acne and likely keratosis pilaris. If you get rid of what you are picking at, you won't have anything to pick at.

Here's an acne article to help deal with the acne. Instead of picking, rub baking soda on the pimples and rinse off.

For the possible keratosis pilaris, try the information in this article. I had this condition all my life and this really worked for me.

Soak in salt water baths to help get rid of the scars. Add a cup of salt to bathwater and read a book. If you are younger than 30, most of the scars will be gone completely in a few years - as long as you don't keep making more.Health Question & Answer

Try to stop again, instead of picking your skin, replace it with something similar. Like when you have the urge to pick at your skin, instead find something with a similar texture and pick at that instead. Or pick at your clothes, but that may put holes in them.Health Question & Answer
