Recognition
Do any of these feel familiar?
People describe skin that feels tight, itchy, or uncomfortable — particularly after bathing, in heated environments, or during winter. Visible flaking, roughness, or 'ashy' appearance particularly affects elbows, knees, shins, and hands. Cracking at the knuckles, heels, or corners of the mouth is common in severe cases. Many notice that their skin condition worsens when they are stressed, unwell, or nutritionally depleted.
