A member asked:
My hand recently showed something like tiny granules on surface they are coarse and sometimes itchy...(i'm taking isotretinoin) is it serious??

Not serious: This med causes dry skin. A typical course is 5 months and is very effective for the worst acne. A week after you finish the dry lips + dry skin resolve.
