Suggest Remedy For Dry And Flaky Skin With Red Spots
I have red spots on my legs......My skin is dry and flaky, not itchy but can t seem to get rid of them after using different creams such as zinc oxide, cortisone 10, cocoa butter and other creams. By the way I am 80 years old and have brown spots also. Any ideas? I take levothroxine 100mcg & a multivitamin
