What Causes Itchy Dry Rash After Flight Journey?
Hi, everytime I fly abroad, be it a 2 hour or 11 hours flight i seem to get an itchy dry rash within a couple of days. It usually goes within a couple of weeks after the flight until my next holiday. What could this be as I have also developed a similar rash on my fingers after my last flight?

Hi,
It could be due to dry skin, most probably asteatotic eczema. Try applying a moisturizing cream during your flight travel. If the lesion still persists, do consult your Dermatologist.
