Hey there
I have a dry itching skin on my tummy chest and on my tummy

i have a patch everytime i scatch it it goes all red got 2 patches on my tummy. and its winter up here what may cause it itchness?

WOW!!! Winter there in Australia in August... WOW

Wintery conditions can make the skin really dry. If you're getting patches, you may want to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

If it's simply dry skin, maybe hydrocortizone will help. It's good for dry, itchy skin.

Yes its middle of winter here and i did show the doctor had a skin where the patches are skin checked and they didn't find anything last month it was.
so im just feeling itching the doctor gave me some cream for it used it all up.lol don't think it helped might go see the doctor again.

Maybe the doctor needs to give you some cream with a stronger dose of hydrocortizone in it, or use a different kind of cream. Aveeno is good for dry, itchiness also. There's the cleansing bar and the various creams and lotions. Aveeno also has a body wash that is very mild. See if it's ok with your doctor to cleanse the affected area(s) with something mild (like Aveeno) and then use the Aveeno lotion.
Perhaps the doctor will prescribe you something to wash the area(s) with--if necessary.

When is winter over in Australia? That's amazing... we're just coming up on the end of summer and the start of the fall season here. Different things are happening in different parts of the world... I'm lovin' it!

is it not ezchema (not spelt ryt). is it really itchn especially at night time? if it is mayb its that. or could be just off the weather

I've tried that cream what you said JubesInquest didn't help its not a rash im having its from the weather i reckon only itch when i need to to i try not to scatch.lol it itches whenever im itching lauren2007

Hey Lily
the dry skin isn't peeling not that itching now the doctor said its from the spring season causing it..like hayever, allergy,sneezing,itching dryness. and i did try to eat less meat bread,dairy products, junk foods eat more healthy foods and it didn't help, just have to use some cream for it !!
