My Mother is here to stay with a month or so. After she got her I noticed pieces of dead skin on the toilet. I asked her about it and she said she has had dried skin for about 6 months what can she do? This is grossing me out, I have to clean the toilet every time before I go??? please help
Hello, Welcome to healthcare magic, Severe dryness (Xerosis) can be associated with visible flaking of old skin. However it is better to rule out diseases like psoriasis which is associated with severe flaking by consulting a dermatologist. She should apply a moisturizing lotion three times a day once soon after bath. Avoid taking bath in hot water and use a mild soap. Hope this helped, Take care.
