Patches of Dry skin?
by J, Jan 29, 2000 12:00AM
I recently noticed some patches of what seems like dry skin, but I have had this for about 2 weeks now and I am starting to get nervous. The patches are red about 1cm and a half in size with flaky skin on top. Can you tell me what this might be and whether I should go to a doctor for treatment right away? Thank you.
