Dry skin can be related to RA medications, and it's important to discuss any new symptoms with your doctor. However, there are several soothing remedies that many people find helpful for managing dry skin.

Here are some recommended solutions that other myRAteam members have found effective:

• Coconut oil - provides deep moisturizing without leaving residue
• Oatmeal baths - helps with skin irritation and dryness
• CBD oil (where legal) - can help soothe dry skin
• Cooling products with ingredients like menthol When trying any new skin treatment, start small to test for sensitivity. Apply moisturizers right after bathing when skin is still damp for better absorption. If your dry skin persists or worsens, make sure to discuss this with your rheumatologist as they may want to evaluate your current medications or check for other related conditions.
