Title: Causes of Dry Skin & Treatment for Dry Skin


1
Dry Skin What Causes It What Can Be Done To
Treat It?
2
Why is Skin Suddenly Dry?
  • Dry skin, also known as Xeroderma, is caused by
    a lack of water in our skins outer layer, the
    Epidermis. This is a common skin condition that
    can affect men and women of all ages. Due to a
    lack of natural skin oils and lubricants, older
    people are thought to be more vulnerable.
    Normally, it lasts a few days or weeks, although
    it can sometimes grow more severe and long-term.
    However, in the vast majority of situations,
    treatment is possible.
  • Simply examine around the patchy parts of your
    body, such as the back, arms, sides of the
    abdomen, thighs, waist, and legs, to determine if
    you have a dry skin problem (particularly lower
    legs)

Symptoms of Dry Skin
  • Symptoms of dry skin may vary from person to
    person, depending upon your age, health, weather,
    genetics or family history, location, and how
    much time you remain outdoors. The Chances of
    having this disorder is even higher in winter and
    dry climates.
  • Dry skin is most often characterized by itching
  • Having rough skin or feeling tight after bathing,
    showering, and swimming
  • Red patches on the skin
  • People with a dark complexion usually have an
    ashy gray complexion
  • Scaling or epidermis loss (loss of the upper
    layer of skin)
  • There are wrinkles and red marks on the skin
  • Visit the Skin Care Specialist in Coimbatore to
    cure your dry skin problem early, when you find
    the above symptoms.

Major Causes of Dry Skin
  • Chemical-based soaps (with deodorant) and
    detergents are like a wash and drain, meaning
    that when you wash your body, they eliminate all
    moisture and the skins protective oils.
  • Because of changes in our hormones, our skin gets
    dry and thin as we age.
  • Our mothers taught us to wash our hands
    frequently, but if we have dry skin, this is not
    a good idea because constant hand washing can
    cause our skin to crack or dry out.
  • Avoid wearing uncomfy attire, even if it makes
    you look handsome/beautiful. If it irritates or
    itches you, dont wear it.
  • Even if you look handsome/beautiful in a sweater,
    avoid wearing uncomfy clothing. Dont wear it if
    it causes irritation or itching.
  • Medical conditions, like diabetes psoriasis,
    eczema skin disease, etc.
