So in this case you use a personal pronoun for a body part. How do you decide when to use one and when not to?

As I wrote in the post, there are still many cases when you do. I can’t say specifically why you use a possessive pronoun here, but you might as well say Jag är torr om huden (smth like ’I am dry of/about/around the skin’)
