Dehydration: You may very well be existing in a constant state of dehydration. The majority of the population is. Try increasing your fluid intake - particularly water- so that your urine is clear to light yellow in color. If this does not help, see the dermatologist for further evaluation. If you are dehydrated, rehydrating will make you feel better overall, as well. Good Luck.
