Lower leg skin was dry, itched in sleep, bled so i put hydro seal bandaids. when came off, became more dry, cracked, itchy, so more bleed in sleep.

Dry skin : Would follow up with dermatology rule out eczema related to foods/ allergies/other or psoriasis. . in the interim can try Aquaphor and/ or when in the shower rub coconut oil all over legs and then rinse off with just water. i do not like band aids as they trap moisture and can lead to infection
