Members confirmed experiencing scaly skin similar to what the original poster described, with many noting that flare-ups often coincide with increased pain, stress, or fibromyalgia symptoms. Several members shared practical solutions that have worked for them, including Aveeno moisturizer (especially the one with sweet almond oil), steroid creams from doctors, and consistent daily moisturizing routines to manage the itching and scaling. A recurring theme was the connection between nerve sensitivity and skin issues, with members reporting patches on their faces, hands, legs, and scalp that worsen during difficult times.
