Have White Patches Of Dry Skin On Lower Legs And Feet, Itchy. How To Get Rid Off It?
I have white patches of dry skin that you cant really see until I start scratching them and then they are very obvious. I have SLE , dont know if that applies but most of these areas are on my lower legs and feet. They itch more like inside my skin and sometimes I dont feel like when I scratch it is getting to the itch. Very annoying and disturbing as it is getting worse. Thank you
