My face as suddenly become very dry and started to flake?
Recently I have had a infection called pityriasis rosea, which is caused by a virus, it is meant to affect areas such has the chest but not the face, and it has basically cleared up now but I have now got a very dry face which is all over my neck, face and my eyelids and scalp.
I was wondering if anyone could tel me why this is happening.
It can be itchy and does not look very attractive to have skin flaking off my face all the time.
My face has now been like this for about a week.
and had the orginal infection for about 3weeks.
can some one please help and give me any suggestion on what i should do?
Many Thanks
Have been using e45 cream all week with no change, and can sometimes be sore when applying, wash my face daily using medium temperature water and applying cream 2 - 3 times a day.

Well, it is starting to get cold outside, and maybe your hot showers along with the cold weather are causing a severe condition. Try maybe to take colder showers, moisturize your face with lotion, and try to put more clothes on when going outside.

Maybe your face is just dry?
Cold water moisturizes, though they say to use heat to open your pores.
If you use heat, use cold right afterwards.
Use other moisturizers like lotion, or if you use anything for acne, make sure it has a moisturizer in it.
