Dry, flaky skin on the face and ears with long-term pigmentation and hair fall may suggest seborrheic dermatitis, eczema, or nutritional deficiencies (like zinc, vitamin D, or B-complex). Your gastric issues and asthma may be linked to food sensitivities or chronic inflammation. Please consult a dermatologist and consider basic blood tests, while using a gentle moisturizer, anti-fungal cream (if needed), and addressing any gut imbalance with a balanced diet and probiotic support.
Hello Sri Lakshmi As you also have melasma and seborrheic dermatitis…I would just you only to apply tripin plus only on lesion not on entire area Also use lesser or milder form of Creams
Apply moisturizer over your flanky ear and skin area and avoid using hard soap or any other product Use 0.5%salicylic acid body wash
Managing dry, flaky skin along with other symptoms you’re experiencing can involve multiple approaches. First, consider hydration and gentle skincare. Using a moisturizer with ingredients like ceramides or hyaluronic acid can help nourish and maintain skin moisture. Also, avoid harsh soaps or hot water, as these can exacerbate dryness. Opt for a gentle, hydrating cleanser instead. For areas of pigmentation, regular use of sunscreen can prevent further pigmentation and protect your skin. A broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher applied daily is advisable, even on cloudy days. You might consider products with niacinamide or vitamin C, which can help improve uneven skin tone over time, but consult a dermatologist before starting new treatments, particularly for longstanding pigmentation issues.
If you’re experiencing persistent or worsening dryness or flakiness, or if there’s discomfort or rash, it might be wise to see a healthcare professional to rule out conditions like eczema or contact dermatitis, especially given your history of asthma, which can be linked with skin sensitivities. For the hair loss, it could be worth looking into stress, nutritional deficiencies, or thyroid function—these can all impact hair health. An assessment by a healthcare provider can help narrow down causes and guide appropriate treatment—sometimes simple dietary changes or supplements might help. For gastric issues, it’s beneficial to monitor dietary habits, avoid trigger foods (like spicy or greasy foods), and consider keeping a food diary. An allergist or dietitian might offer tailored advice—especially since some foods might aggravate both gastric troubles and asthma. Additionally, if you’re on medications for asthma like inhalers, review these with your doctor to ensure they’re still appropriate, as some medications can have side effects that impact skin and digestion. Overall, addressing these issues might require a multifaceted approach, so continuing conversations with your healthcare provider would be essential for ongoing management and addressing potential underlying causes comprehensively.
