it's been ten months and I feel horrible. Do anyone get dry flaky skin?

    Yesssss, I'm on month 5 and I have been having dry peeling skin but mainly on my hands and fingers with a few odd patches on my legs. Really strange but I'm assuming it's just the virus.

    I'll be glad when this is over. I never had white spots but I did have swollen tonsils.

    Hi Neenie, The effects can last so long, make sure you get the RDA of your vitamins & minerals, drink lots of water and there are really good moisturizers, like some for eczema or sensitive skin that help with itchy, dry skin!! Hopefully it will all be behind you soon...BEST WISHES💒🎶♾🌈🐾🍀☮
