Suggest Remedy For Sensitive Skin

HI Im a 64 male, 230#, reasoanlby active, golf walking etc.: My skin is easily cut, so arms and hands hit something and will peel off epidermal layer of skin and bleed. I did have a lapband surgery and have not taken vitamins, if that might be a factor. Anything to consider that would make the skin more resistant?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sensitive skin . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like overexposure to the sun , postherpetic neuralgia , demyelinating diseases , tactile defensiveness , migraines , fibromyalgia and neuropathy . Skin can also become senstive in case of takeing blood thinner medicines for long time or less cell division at the surface of skin . I would suggest you to conssult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe vitamin B and vitamin E supplements , may suggest different types of medications like anti-inflammatory drugs that are non-steroidal such as ibuprofen , ketamine . For now take healty diet including fresh fruits and vegetables along with aloe vera juice and Indian goose berry powder .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwar
