dry skin seems to effect calves and ankles first.
you just need a really really good hydrating lotion,
try something from Jergens or Olay.
You could also try a milk rose mixture to add to your baths.
take 2 cups of Powdered Milk
1/2 cup colloidal Oatmeal
15 drops of Rose Geranium oil
5 drops of Peppermint oil
1/3 cup Rose Flower Water
1/2 cup of clean Organic Rose petals
Its a really simple yet effective way to relax and hydratate at the same time. and you can get all of those ingredients at any organic store, it really does wonders.

Hmmm that's puzzling. Maybe it could be your lotion. I had a doctor suggest using Lubriderm or Am Lactin. You have to ask your pharmacist for the latter one. You don't need a prescription. And I highly suggest seeing a dermatologist.
