How effective is lotions for dry skin

fireng SG

I have been having dry skin since young until now. But its not those very serious type that causes the skin to be itchy until at night cannot sleep than you keep on scratch until it bleeds..

Sometimes it will cause itchness..

Try seeing doctor before including going to national skin centre but no use 1. The doctors will just give lotions to apply the type which can be bought without prescription from pharmacy.

Not effective at all. When I apply the lotion, it only temporary relives the itch. The next day the skin become dry already.

Tried eating fruits like once a week too but doesn't help the dry skin too.

Is there any permaent solutions to solve dry skin or I have to apply lotion on to it everyday for the rest of my life?

how often is ur itchness, since u said 'sometimes'

ask for for medication to curb itchiness so that you do not scratch - however some medication for itchyiness may cause drowsiness.

try other alternatives e.g. TCM?.
