Traditional Chinese medicine and dry skin:

According to TCM, the skin is nourished by the blood. When there is a blood deficiency, TCM believes that dry skin can develop.

Dry skin is often present in skin conditions such as mild eczema because affected skin has a reduced ability to retain moisture.1
