Use moisturizer
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photographs.
It looks like senile xerosis. With age skin looses water and becomes dry easily. This dryness causes itch.
He needs to apply a lot of moisturizer or virgin coconut oil.
The best time to apply is just after bath after drying body with a soft towel so as to trap a layer of water between oil and skin.
This will help in retaining moisture for a long period of time.
Tablet avil will be much better as it will control itch as well as induce sleep.
He can also apply desonide lotion twice daily for 15 days for faster recovery.
While taking bath he can use a syndet ( Zyndet bar) Instead of soap.
This should help.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
