Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have dry pigmented skin which seems to be due to removal of natural moisture and can also occur due to bacterial or fungal infection.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to apply moisturizer/coconut oil throughout the day to retain moisture. You should drink plenty of water and use humidifier at home and apply vitamin E oil at night. Eat green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits. You an also start honey usage. If condition persists for more then a week or get worse consult dermatologist for proper diagnosis so that doctor can rule out any infection.Doctor may prescribe oral/topical antibiotics or antifungal depending upon the condition.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
