Dry skin is an extremely common condition that occurs in all skin colours and ethnic groups; however, differences in skin colour can cause significant differences in the incidence, presentation and treatment of different skin conditions. Although dry skin may cause similar symptoms among different skin tones, the appearance may make it more challenging to easily recognise – a fact highlighted by hospital admissions linked to eczema being up to six times more likely in people of colour than in people with light skin.

In this podcast, Dr Roger Henderson looks at the reasons for this, what impact skin of colour can have on both diagnosing and managing dry skin conditions and how best to manage dry skin in people with skin of colour.
