Hi,
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
Your wife might be suffering from hypothyroidism as she feels cold. She might be having dry coarse skin due to hypothyroidism. I suggest her to undergo thyroid function tests like serum T3,T4 & TSH.Meanwhile she can apply Moiste cream(Vit E & Alovera) till the blood results are available.
Regards
