I am 20 years old and noticed that i had this little dry bump on my thigh. I didnt think much of it because i thought it was just a hair bump developing. Days go by and it has spread, & it is currently spreading. Then i found one on my forearm. Not as big & hasnt spread much. Now i have another one on my left breast. I honestly dont know what this is. & im starting to freak out. Please tell something.
I have dry skin paches on my face, on my chin and on my cheek next to my lip n nose, I have bumpy lips too and noticed its gettin red on my lip now... any comments on what it could be? Im really scared of what it is. They itch and flake alot and lotion just stings and doesn't work :/
Thanks for your quick response. Yes, I first began to notice the dry patches about a month after I started taking the pills. I have never had dry skin in this area before. I'm not using any harsh soaps or anything unusual on my skin.
Hi
At this point, we can not really say if this has been due to the pills given that you have had a history of eczema before. This may be a dermatitic skin reaction. Dry patches of skin may be signs of xerosis . This may be due to certain exposure to soaps or chemicals. You may need to have this assessed first as fungal infections may also present as dry patches of skin which may actually be itchy (but not always).
Did these dry skin patches appear only after taking the pills?
