Hello, Welcome to hcm, Dry skin may occur because of various causes, it's severe in elderly people and more during winters.I advice you to use mild soaps and continuous moisturiser. If your mother is taking any medication for other problems just rule out whether any of those medicines is causing dry skin. Get thyroid profile done.
Thank you
