WHY WE HAVE TO CARE OUR SKIN MORE IN WINTERS?
Introduction-
Our skin is body's largest organ that is made up
of water protein fats and minerals. Skin is
responsible to protect the body from germs and
helps in regulation of body temperature. Nerves
present in the skin helps the body to feel
sensations like called cold and hot. 
Along with the time the quality of skin in human
being depletes as the age increases, especially
in winter season there are many skin problems
that people face regularly, most of the people
who live in the areas where there is seasonal
weather changes may develop dry, itchy, dead skin
rashes during winters. Winter rashes refers to
extremely dehydrated and dry skin which is
basically due to the low humidity level and cold
temperatures.
Causes of winter rashes-
3
The main two components of the skin that help it
to stay moist and to enhance itself are water and
natural oils. Winter rashes generally occurs when
too much moisture is used by the skin during the
cold weather or winters. Cold and dry air can
absorb the water and oil from the skin, some of
the common conditions that are caused during 
winters are-

• Dermatitis- dermatitis generally refers to any
  inflammation of the skin, in dermatitis dry itchy
  patches form on the skin. Poor circulation or
  exposure to any Harsh chemical or an infection
  can cause dermatitis.

Cold urticaria- this is a rare skin condition
which causes swollen, itchy bumps that are called
hives on this scale after exposure to the cold
weather. Psoriasis- cold and dry weather can
lead to trigger psoriasis flares. Other triggers
are stress, smoking and infections.
Tips for healthy skin during winters-

• Use moisturizer daily- petroleum jelly for the
  cream based moisturizer are the best option to
  use in winters rather than lotions, moisturizer
  helps your skin to become moist and helps the
  skin to prevent the loss of oils from the skin.

• Maintain proper hygiene- stay hygienic even in
  the winters try to you wash your face hands feets
  twice a day, but do not overdo it as too much
  cleaning can remove the skin's natural
  moisturizers, try to apply chemical free skin
  products.

• Dont use hot water- do not use hot water to wash
  your skin rather take short lukewarm showers and
  non detergent based cleaners to clean your skin. 

5

• Avoid extreme cold- cold temperature can cause
  many skin disorders as we have discussed above
  try to avoid extreme cold, always cover your face
  and use a petroleum jelly as a skin protector, in
  cold weather if you observe any colour changes in
  hands or feet along with the pain and ulceration
  see your doctor immediately.

6

• Dont smoke- smoking can make diskin look much
  older and can lead to wrinkles, smoking can lead
  to decrease the blood flow of the skin and can
  make skin pale yellow, this also depletes the
  oxygen and their important nutrients that is
  important to the skin during winters.

• Eat healthy diet- eating healthy diet help you
  look and feel the best, try to eat plenty of
  Vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Always
  include diet rich in fish oil or supplement and
  low in unhealthy fats, avoid processed and
  refined carbohydrates. 

7

• Take extra care- the skin gets more fragile
  during the winter season so if there is any skin
  condition like eczema or psoriasis make sure to
  avoid any allergens or irritants that can make
  the condition worse.
