What Is The Remedy For The Dry Patches Of The Skin Which Itches?
hi, i am a 19 yr old female and ive been having some dry patches of skin for the past 2 months. The patches of skin itch from time to time. I just randomly got them one day and they havent gone away. They are a bit darker than my skin tone. The patches started as little dry patches the size or a quarter on my butt and they have spread to the out side of my upper thighs. Now they have about trippled in size and i dont know what to do. Please help.

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to eczema.
I suggest using antihistamines to relieve the itching such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily.
I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application such as Betametasone cream.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
