Dry eczema, also known as crack-like eczema, is mainly due to the loss of moisture in the skin, reduced oil secretion, dry skin, epidermis and stratum corneum showing fine cracks. The skin can be reddish, cracks red more obvious, can occur in many parts of the body, but more common in the limbs, especially in elderly patients before the shin most likely to show. After showing this condition, the cause should be removed first, and some emollients should be used for prevention and treatment, such as vitamin E cream, mineral oil, etc., so that the moisture of the skin is not evaporated. As the skin barrier function has been obviously destroyed, try not to use steroid ointment for treatment.
