• Do I have a skin condition?

Why over the past month have I been getting these flaky red spots all over my back, shoulders, face, and stomach now? I moisturize and the flakiness reappears, sometimes they itch.

You may have a skin condition like eczema, psoriasis, contact dermatitis, or a fungal infection. These can cause flaky, red, itchy spots, even with moisturizing.

Next Steps:
See a Dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Avoid Scratching to prevent irritation.

I am sorry, it is hard to say based on the photo. I think a visit to your PCM and if they can’t figure it out, then a dermatologist would be a reasonable way to approach your issue.

Warm regards,
