what's with skin and feet peeling is? well you catch alot of bacteria in just one day and youn produce dead skin and when you produce to much your skin or feet start to peal  and shred just like your hair over millions of dead hair is under your bed in tiny pieces. I think that you should read a little more abnout your body.

I am 42 years old.I just had this for this first time about a month ago.  At first I had the feeling that I had dipped my hands in bleach.  It was a numb, slimy feeling.  About a week later, I thought I had burned myself because my thumb started peeling.  That's where it started.  Both of my hands gradually peeled from the fingertips (in big pieces) all the way to my palms.  Both of my hands peeled completely.  Now, approximately a month later, my toes are doing the same thing!  The only thing that I can think of is that I had a bad bladder infection and had taken an antibiotic, and my hands started feeling weird and peeling shortly after that.  I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it or not.  I can't think of anything else.  I am an otherwise very healthy person.  I take a multi-vitamin daily.  I haven't gone to the doctor because I've been reading all of these posts,
and it sounds like there really is no great cure.  I will see if it happens again.  Hope not.

My son has had this since he was 6 howver it worse at times. Demratologists states it is Dyshidrosis - you pretty much have it for life there are some really bad cases. When I read on it - it pretty much it right on -his isnt so severe but the sweating part is dead on. The dr said that season changes , weather, stress and anxiety can bring it on.
I am so interested that so many people here have exactly what my son is and they say the odds are 20 in 100,000.

Hi,

The message you have sent does not give sufficient detail to help us understand what this could be.

However, there are some disorders which may have lead to peeling of skin and I would encourage you to go through them to find out if they are relevant to you.

allergies/sensitivities, pitted keratoloysis, eczema, pompholyx etc..

please give more details on the condition as to duration, progression, and development. Also give us some information about yourself such as age and sex and other relevant medical conditions.

keep us posted on this.
