How To Heal Peeling Off Scaly Skin During And After Shower?

Scaly skin, especially during and after a shower. Skin comes off in rolls and is white to light gray. I am a 46 yr old male and post Papillary Thyroid carcinoma patient but also seeing this in my kids. Affects the majority of the body surfaces. We live north of the 54° latitude if that could have anything to do with it.

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be the metastasis of the papillary thyroid carcinoma.The living area may not have any relation with the changes in the skin.
As there is possibility of changes in the skin,the other members of the family who are having the change are to be scanned for the papillary thyroid carcinoma,andtreatedaccordingly. Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods,and fresh juice of palatable vegetables to have blood, good health and resistance against the infections and skin health.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
