Face Skin dryness and itching
My face skin has become very dry in areas like eye lids, area below eyes and nose and little white scaling is also there along with itching I applied Zole ointment and it solved the problem temporarily. On normal days I apply Lotus sunscreen before going out. I do not use any cosmetics on skin apart from eye liner and kajal Also, a small patch behind my head inside the hair has got extreme dandruff along with itching and scaling Please guide and help with appropriate medication
