Traditional Chinese medicine and the skin In TCM, the skin is traditionally believed to be nourished by the blood. Herbs that are traditionally taken to enhance blood health have also been traditionally used to relieve skin dryness. Dry, itchy skin One of the most common symptoms of mild eczema is dry skin, which occurs because the affected skin has a reduced ability to retain moisture. Itching is another characteristic symptom of mild eczema, and factors that limit itching can promote healing.
