A. there are multiple causes of hypopigmentation in the skin. it is important to find the cause only if the intensity of hypopigmentation is increasing as well as it is spreading on the surface of thex skin. do not apply any type of cream lotion or powder which might aggravate the condition and then meet your doctor because the treatment for such problems last long and accurate diagnosis needs to be maintained for proper treatment

A. So it is definitely not dryness because it’s approaching a different different places which either due to deficiency of calcium or some skin related problem you can get it checked with your doctor they will give you a clarity about what the problem is and accordingly we can suggest you treatment further for that
