Shedding dry patches
Flaky skin is skin that sheds small, dry pieces—the result of dryness, irritation, or conditions like eczema or psoriasis.
The flakes may be barely visible or obvious enough to fall onto dark clothing.
My flaky skin gets worse in winter.
Moisturizers and medicated creams are common treatments.
