STDs That Cause Dry Skin: Types, Treatments & More

STDs and Dry Skin

Most common STDs are often characterized by typical signs, such as bumps or warts. But in some cases, these diseases may lead to dry skin, a less obvious symptom. Because dry skin is a very common condition and can be triggered by different conditions, many people often ignore it and do not associate it with STDs. A small area of dry skin is not necessarily a sign of STDs. However, if you also notice other symptoms of an infection, make sure to visit a healthcare provider to get a precise diagnosis. [2]
