👉 The term "dermopathy" refers to a condition characterized by scaly skin, often seen on feet and ankles. It is often associated with diabetes and can also be caused by other conditions such as psoriasis or eczema. The skin may appear rough, dry, and itchy due to the breakdown of keratinocytes in the epidermis, which are responsible for protecting the skin from damage. Treatment options may include medications, laser therapy, or surgery if severe.
