Spots on skin
My daughter has developed these light spots on her skin. Her skin also seems very dry. We've been using coconut oil twice a day, but it's not getting better. The spots are on her arms and slowly developing on her legs also

Hi . greetings. This could possibly be pityriasis Alba or follicular eczema. Dry skin needs to be attended to by regular use of moisturizer creams like emoderm or dermadew or cetaphil. Rule out atopic dermatitis by seeing a dermatologist in your city. Hope this helps. Warm regards, Dr Govind S Mittal, excel care hospital, Bangalore.
