Dry skin (xerosis) occurs when the skin loses too much moisture or natural oil, resulting in roughness, flaking, itching, tightness, and sometimes cracks. It is common in cold weather, low humidity, excessive bathing, harsh soaps, aging, nutritional deficiencies, and certain medical conditions like hypothyroidism, eczema, or psoriasis. The skin’s protective barrier becomes weak, making it more sensitive to irritation and infection.

Homoeopathy aims to restore the skin’s moisture balance by correcting internal tendencies such as poor hydration, weakened glandular function, allergic disposition, stress, or constitutional dryness. Medicines are prescribed on symptom patterns like itching type, scaling nature, aggravating factors (winter, bathing, heat), and associated conditions. Long-term constitutional treatment strengthens immunity and improves the overall skin quality.
