Re: can a dry patch be cancer?
I just had a similar round patch of dry skin on my leg...I went to the dermatologist and it turned out to be "coin" eczema (the technical name is numular (sp?)). I was given a steroid ointment to apply to it, and it went away in 2 weeks. I would suggest that you go to see your doctor to make sure it is nothing more serious than eczema.
Good luck!
