Dry Skin allergy in my ankle

2021-06-04 18:51:06
Hi had a small dry skin on my right leg ankle. Gradually it started increasing since it was itching and I had to scratch it for the itchy. Now in 6 months the dry skin has increased in size for almost 6 cm or odd. It is still itchy. I apply cocunut oil everyday 2-3 times. But it is still itchy as the oil evaporates. Once months earlier doctor gave me Momate F cream, but it was not reducing. Any suggestion like any cream or any lotion suggestions please
