A member asked:
Do i have dry skin or eczema? my body tends to get dry easily. why is that? and how can i make it better?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doc needs to examine: Many skin conditions are difficult to diagnose without being seen. Some preventive measures: take warm showers (hot ones strip natural oils; baths do likewise); moisturize immediately after shower; if in sun or wind, moisturize & use sunblock; avoid strong soaps/body washes.
