Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Sorry to say but there is no permanent cure for icthyosis vulgaris. Newer treatment options like botox injection, newer steroid creams etc should be tried to see for any improvement. You need to drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated. Take more of anti oxidant and vitamin rich fruits.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
