What should I do about itchy skin in winter?
Itchy skin during winter is a common problem, usually caused by dry skin. Patients are advised to keep their skin clean and avoid using excessively hot water for bathing, as this can strip away the skin's natural oils. Using a gentle moisturizer, especially in combination with a humidifier indoors to maintain air moisture, can help keep the skin hydrated.
If itching persists or worsens, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist to rule out other underlying causes and receive appropriate treatment advice.
