Dry Skin in the winter

Dry Skin in the Winter months

Have you noticed that soon as it hits October/November your skin becomes really dry and you start to get all sorts of  spots associated with the cold and as soon as the cold goes your skin reverts back to normal.

Apparently research indicates that the lack of ultraviolet ray, (sun) on the skin encourages organism/fungus to grow more quickly. Even if fungal spores are left in your skin it will lie dormant in hot sunny weathers( in other words you will not see any spots) and then suddenly sprout out when its cold.

Ok, when it is cold like in October, i have tried to use various types of creams which have helped but want to tackle the underlying root of the problem. Do i then go for artificial ultraviolet sun-ray treatment (sunbeds) more in the winter and early spring? or do i continually use some sort of bleaching cream or skin reducing flora cream to constantly get rid of that top surface and then stop in the summer and then resume again in the winter.

Do i avoid wearing the same clothes that caused me to have spots from last winter, would our clothes be infected with the juice of the fungal  or chickenpox spots?

If so how can we wash our clothes to get rid of these spores? I think it would be best to just throw it away if the cloth is causing you much itch.
