Flaky Skin
I have this dry whitish scaly skin disorder. I think it's psoriasis. It flares up at times and goes. I have it for 20 years mostly on my legs. It at times appears on my scalp, hands, and penis. Although, when it clears up in other parts of the body, it remains on my legs. please give me some advice on how to treat this disease. Also, will Whitefield ointment help with the symptoms

Firstly - use a moisturiser regularly. Second - pls see a dermatologist physically for a detailed evaluation so that there is clarity about what you are exactly suffering from. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal. Bengaluru
