Anybody Else?

When I go to itch my skin it breaks open and I bleed. Very little scratches end up resulting in this. Thoughts?

    Where stretch marks are? Because I have this issue to. Your skin is so stretch it's thinner and therefore tears open easier.

    I am in Iowa and it is everywhere. I forget and itch my leg or arm and my skin breaks open. It is super annoying to be sitting at work and look down see blood.

    I am in Iowa also. Go splurge on eczema lotion may help better than regular.

    I'm in Illinois, and that's pretty common for me, especially on my hands. Heavy duty lotion and/or vitamin E oil or Vaseline... You just need extra moisturization :-)

    Aquaphor or Eucerin with rich emollients(a 16oz tub is 12$ At target) is what my derm suggested for the same problem. I'm also in Iowa yay for Midwest winters!!
