What Causes Skin Peeling In Both Palms And Fingertips?

Yes, I have recently (past couple of days) noticed skin peeling of both palms and some puckering of my fingertips (as if my hands have been in water too long). There is no pain, itching or other symptoms. I have not experienced environmental changes, ie different soaps etc. or medication changes. I am trying to figure out what it could be?

Hello,

I would recommend you to use some moisturizing cream twice a day and every time after you wash your hands. Try to avoid any strong chemicals. Normally you should be better with this but if you notice no improvement in 3-4 days, you might need to see your doctor.

I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
