Skin Dryness | Causes | Treatment | Precautions | Home Remedies | By Dr. Kanwal Jawad | YCAP.

During the winter months our skin is subject to the damaging and drying effects of cold, windy weather and the low humidity of dry indoor heating. Our efforts to stay warm with long, hot showers and internal heating tend to suck the moisture from our body, leaving skin dry, itchy and prone to cracking. Those with sensitive skin or skin conditions such as eczema and rosacea are particularly affected. Severely dry skin can crack and bleed, creating sites that can be further irritated by soaps and clothing, and also making you more vulnerable to infection. Thus, it is just as important to take extra care of your skin during this season as it is in the summertime. For more informative videos please subscribe to our channel and click the bell icon.
