Update on the weekly descaling

Less flakes! Also started using amlactin (i was using gold bond rough and bumpy before).

Is this ichthyosis?

I noticed in my early 20s that my skin looks “not normal”. I just turned 40 now. It is just on my legs and arms and my skin has always looked like this for as long as i can remember. Is it just dry skin or ichthyosis? My mom’s skin also looks like this.

This has seriously affected my confidence and i am too embarrassed to wear short dresses or shorts. Pictures show close up of my lower legs.

My 3 year old is sweating!!!

He hasn't ever been able to sweat before!

He would just get red and hot to the touch.

The last 2 days I've found sweat on his forehead! The relief and hope I have for him is immense!
