Ichthyosis is a genetic skin disorder characterized by dry, scaly skin that may resemble fish scales. This condition occurs when the skin's natural shedding process is disrupted, leading to a buildup of dead skin cells. The seriousness and specific symptoms can vary, but common signs include thick, rough, and flaky skin that can be itchy and uncomfortable. Ichthyosis can affect any part of the body, but it is often most noticeable on the legs, arms, and torso. There is no cure for ichthyosis, but treatment focuses on managing symptoms and improving skin condition. This typically involves regular moisturizing, exfoliating to remove dead skin, and sometimes using prescription creams or ointments to help the skin shed properly.
