What Is The Treatment For Dry Red Patch On Skin?
I have a very dry and red patch on my forearm. It is exactly in the middle between my elbow and wrist. It had become itchy a few times and I scratched it. When I scratch it, tiny bits of my skin look like it is peeling off. It feels like a thicker layer of skin and has been there for 3 weeks.

Well come to HCM
Such lesion which does not have any specific reason or not clinically examined can be best treated with steroid preparation and the best option would be Mometasone cream try this if symptom does not responds then clinical examination is must, hope this helps.
