A member asked:
My skin is always dry (sometimes my hands crack and bleed) and lotions never work. are there any non-topical treatments/cures? any foods i can eat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dry: It comes down to applying fragrance free moisturizers often during times of dry skin. Supplements and foods will not hydrate the skin as moisturizers will.
