Suggest Treatment For Dry Patches On The Hands And Feet
My husband s hands and feet have recently become very dry and flaky. We really can t think of anything that he might have come in contact with. Using a product like Gold Bond hand lotion helps a little, but the dry, flaky skin returns. Any suggestions?

Hello,
He could use a good moisturizer like Cetaphil moisturizer but if it is scaly or itchy, he will need to be further evaluated by a dermatologist to rule out fungal infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
