  • Dryness is a medical condition in which there is local or more generalized decrease in normal lubrication of the skin or mucous membranes. Examples of local dryness include dry mouth, dry eyes, dry skin (xeroderma), Diabetic foot and vaginal dryness. These often have specific causes and treatments. It is possible to have dry eyes without any other signs or symptoms, but this usually causes a syndrome of eye symptoms called keratoconjunctivitis sicca. More generalized dryness can be caused by e.g. dehydration (that is, more general loss of body fluids), anticholinergic drugs and Sjögren syndrome. (en)
  • 乾燥或是乾澀的症狀是指人類皮膚或是黏膜的潤滑液體減少，可能是局部性的，也可能是全身性的。 局部乾澀的例子包括有口乾、眼睛乾燥、及陰道乾燥。針對這些問題，一般來說，會有特定的原因以及相對應的治療方式。也有可能有乾眼的情形，但是沒有症狀或是體徵，不過這會造成一種稱為乾眼症的眼部症狀症候群。 整體性的乾澀包括有脱水（身體整體體液的過度流失）、抗膽鹼劑藥物以及干燥综合征。 (zh)
