The skin on my body is dry like fish scales

There are many types of skin diseases with different symptoms. Sometimes the skin becomes red and swollen, sometimes it causes acne, and sometimes it is more special, like fish scales, peeling and dry. In fact, the main reason for dry skin for many people is lack of water. For example, in autumn and winter, dandruff often falls off. Some scaly skin is caused by certain diseases, so if your skin is like fish scales, you should go to the hospital to check the cause.

1. Symptoms of ichthyosis

1. If ichthyosis is serious, it will also cause other complications and endanger human health. Although such cases are relatively rare, patients are still reminded to pay attention to it, actively participate in the treatment of ichthyosis, and try to minimize its harm.

2. If the skin on the legs is dry like fish scales, severe cases may cause chapped skin, stiff epidermis, sparse body hair, abnormal sweating, imbalance of water metabolism in the body, and affect the endocrine system.

3. When autumn and winter come, you should add clothes as soon as possible according to climate change, avoid cold stimulation of the skin, pay attention to the warm clothes, prevent exposed skin frost, and maintain daily discipline, work and rest.

4. In addition, a reasonable diet structure can improve physical fitness and delay aging.

2. How to treat dry skin on legs like fish scales

1. External herbal treatment. It is not recommended to use Western medicine to treat ichthyosis, because most Western medicines contain hormone ingredients. Improper use will have certain side effects on the body, making the skin resistant to drugs, which is not conducive to the cure of ichthyosis. Ichthyosis can be treated with hormone-free Shi's Herbal Cream, which can be applied to the affected area 3-5 times a day. If applied consistently for a month, it can be quickly cured.

2. Pay attention to your daily diet and replenish water. Drink plenty of water to prevent skin dehydration, eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins to prevent dry skin caused by vitamin deficiency, and eat more foods rich in collagen such as meat skin to ensure skin elasticity.

3. Since ichthyosis often worsens in winter, winter care for ichthyosis patients is very important. Patients should keep warm and avoid cold stimulation in winter. They should also pay attention to proper skin cleaning, use some appropriate skin care products, and keep the skin moisturized.

4. You should also pay more attention when taking a bath. It is generally not recommended for patients with ichthyosis to take a bath in hot water that is too hot, or to use chemical lotions with strong alkalinity, as this will make the skin drier.

5. Strengthen physical exercise and participate in more outdoor activities. In winter, you can increase your activity level and sweating appropriately. However, you should wear warm clothes to avoid skin irritation caused by cold wind. In addition, proper exercise can improve physical fitness, enhance one's immunity, and effectively keep away from other skin diseases such as ichthyosis.

3. How to care for dry skin on legs that looks like fish scales

1. Moisturizing the skin. The skin of the whole body should be kept clean, take a wet bath every day, and avoid alkaline bath products. The climate is relatively dry in winter, and the sebum secretion on the skin surface is reduced.

2. Insufficient moisturizing effect leads to dry skin, which can easily aggravate the original condition. Therefore, more attention should be paid in winter.

3. Don’t take a bath too often, and the water temperature does not need to be too hot. After bathing, the whole body should be promptly rubbed with skin oils such as vitamin A cream, allantoin, etc.

4. You should drink more water to replenish the water loss of the body and skin. In addition, a reasonable diet structure can improve your physical condition and delay aging.
