I Have Had Very Dry And Blotchy Skin On My Stomach, What Is This Problem & How Can I Fix It ?

parts of my body have my regular skin color and little circle like blotches For a long time now I have had very dry and blotchy skin on my stomach,underarms and it is now spreading to my legs. Those parts of my body have my regular skin color and little circle like blotches All over those parts of my body and those blotches are about a tone or two lighter than my original skin color and they get very dry and those parts of my body have really rough feeling unlike the feeling of my skin on other parts of my body. What is this problem ? And how can I fix this? Please let me know!

Please look whether hair are present in discoloured patches or not, also note whether you have normal sensation of touch in discoloured patches or not. After this proper treatment can be advised. till then Add glycerine to rose water and use it as a body lotion.
