Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)
During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Scaly skin.
Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing
your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information
you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis.
Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:
- How long have you had scaly skin? - to determine if acute or chronic.
- Is the scaly skin localized or generalized?
- If the scaly skin is localized, where on the body is the skin scaly? - may assist in helping determine the cause e.g. scaliness between the toes may suggest athlete's foot (fungal infection); dry scaly cracked skin on legs of elderly especially in winter suggest asteatotic eczema; on heels suggest keratoderma climactericum; hands and wrists may suggest scabies; in flexures such as front of elbow and behind knee suggest atopic dermatitis (eczema); on scalp may suggest psoriasis vulgaris.
- Have you had contact with another person with a similar skin eruption? - may suggest scabies, tinea or other fungal skin infection.
- Have you worn any new clothing recently? - may suggest atopic dermatitis.

During childhood a drier ad thicker rash develops in front of the elbow, behind the knees and on the hands and feet, which may be dry, itchy, cracked and painful. Rarely does eczema have an adult onset.

Allergic contact dermatitis is usually confined to the site of exposure to the allergen.
