It turns out that the climate in autumn and winter is cold, and sebaceous gland secretions are difficult to discharge to the body surface. Scientific tests show that the melting point of fat secreted by human sebaceous glands is about 30 degrees Celsius. In the cold season, skin fat is almost solidified into a solid state, which is more difficult to discharge, which makes people's skin dry more obviously in winter. Especially for the elderly, with the increase of age, the metabolic function gradually declines. Because of the decrease of endocrine and the disorder of sebaceous gland secretion, the skin will be dry and itchy. Moreover, the activity function of skin sweat glands is obviously lower than that of young adults, and the amount of perspiration is reduced, which makes the skin surface lack of moisture, which is of course drier and more itchy in dry winter.
