Patchy Skin Problem

Recently I have been getting Patches of dry skin on different parts of my body, arm, back of leg and even on my ear lob. I feel it may be a Vitamin deficiency and want to know if anyone else has had this problem and if you did, what did you do to correct the problem? Thanks

    Fish oil is what I would try. It always seems to help my skin. I did have a spot once that was really itchy and would not go away. My doctor gave me a cream and it went away and never came back.

    I have never heard of this type of problem on any forum related to the surgery. You may need to go see a dermatologist about that.

    Good Luck!
