Dry Skin (xerosis) - Any solution ? (Doctors / Friends ) Your help required ?.

Don't use any perfumed soaps or body wash. :)

Dont know

If you have another more severe diagnosis like exzema or psoriosis you will need a perscription strenght ointment. I say you should use some table salt or surgar because the grain in smaller with some olive oil and or grapeseed oil almond oil. Not baby oil. Use one or all the oils combined. Put salt about a coin size in your palm. add same amount of oil. scrub the dry areas well. not to much pressure but you need to remove some of the dry layers... Make as much as you need of the oil salt to treat all dry areas. Then rinse the salt/sugar away with water NO soap. Add lotion after you blot your skin dry. This is a good thing to do a few times a week.

This is a non-doctor's advice... 1. lots and lots of H2O otherwise known as water (plain water works best) 2. moisturiser, body lotion... whatever creamy paste you can slather over your skin... just do it 3. discipline to continue doing all of the above... don't expect miracle to happen, it will eventually but not entirely recover... 4. patience... enuff said refer to no.3 5. rest well... the more rest you get, the better your skin can self recover
