I have a dry skin patch on my right under thigh there is no itch or discomfort .kindly suggest some ointment
Since there's no itch or discomfort, you can try the following over-the-counter (OTC) ointments:
1. *Moisturizing creams*: Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream, or CeraVe Moisturizing Cream.
2. *Hydrocortisone cream*: A mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone (0.5-1%) can help reduce inflammation and dryness.
3. *Urea-based creams*: Urea (10-20%) creams, such as Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream or Aquaphor Healing Ointment, can help lock in moisture.
4. *Vaseline*: Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) can provide a protective barrier and help retain moisture.
Apply the ointment 2-3 times a day, or as needed. If the patch persists or worsens, consult a doctor or dermatologist for further guidance.
