I don't know if you have ever had such an experience, every autumn and winter, the skin feels very uncomfortable:
The face is red and recurring at every turn
I had an inexplicable itch on my body, and I couldn't help but want to scratch it, and I started to get dandruff everywhere on my body
Many people say: this is the skin is too dry, just hydrate.
In autumn and winter, the skin has less sebum secretion and rapid water loss, which can indeed lead to dry skin. But sometimes it's not just because it's dryness, it's probably a sign of a skin disease.
The barrier function of the skin is weak, and changes in weather and temperature can easily induce skin diseases, resulting in itching, redness, and flaking of the skin.
Today, I will help you sort out some common skin diseases in autumn and winter.
