Dr. Rashmi S Ravindra, a renowned consultant dermatologist and cosmetologist at Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Rd, discusses common winter care problems and provides valuable tips on preventing and managing them effectively. Dr. Rashmi addresses the prevalent issue of dry skin during winter, affecting various body parts including hands, legs, face, and lips. Additionally, dry hair and brittle knees are commonly observed. Individuals with pre-existing skin conditions such as acne or psoriasis may experience exacerbated symptoms, leading to excessive dryness, itching, and mild infections. The primary cause of dry skin is inadequate hydration, resulting in a loss of moisture content and subsequent dryness and chapping. Insufficient water intake during winter further contributes to this issue, particularly when accompanied by prolonged hot baths. Dr. Rashmi emphasizes the heightened risk for individuals with existing dryness, eczema, pimples, or psoriasis, as these conditions may worsen during winter. Don't let winter skincare problems dampen your spirits. Take expert advice, and proactive measures, and enjoy healthy, supple skin throughout the winter months.
