Post Comments - itchy flakey skin on face

Larissalle

Hi, Misty, go to the below youtube link of an academic lecture by Dr. Michael Holick.  Fast forward to about 44:00 and press the play button. Listen to what Dr. Holick says.  At 44:37, press pause and see if the skin condition that you see on a girl's scalp looks like the rash on your face.  I think it looks very similar.  I would email Dr. Holick -- his email is on my profile -- and ask him what your doctor can do to treat your condition.

Check out the research from Dr. Michael F. Holick on skin conditions and vitamin D.  This could be a vit D deficiency as vit D has gobs of receptors in the hair follicles and are greatly involved in skin maintenance.  Get your vitamin D blood level checked (it's called a 25(OH)D test).  If you are deficient, see my section on tips for your doctor for getting the right treatment.  Take care.
