What Causes Dry Eyelids, Throat And Scalp?
I have had very dry eyelids and very dry skin surrounding the eyes, in addition to a dry throat, dry scalp with dandruff (usually normal) and very chapped lips. I was prescribed prednisone and an antibiotic for 5-7 days by a nurse practitioner. The dry throat and dandruff has subsided, but the eyes and lips still are itchy, dry and are not responding to topical lotions. What to do?
