Ok,

i have had the same problem. I would just constantly peel away skin on my feet and hands. I know this is going to sound strange and sick but I cured it by using urine. I tryed everything, like creams, powders, and the docters could not figure it out and I heard from someone that I should try urine because there is something that gets rid athletes foot, skin peeling problems and real bad fungus. I really didnt want to try it but it actually worked. I hope this helps!

:roll: if you guys find an answer for peeling fingers plz advise us all. My 7 year old is ashamed to go to school and show his fingers. For the pass week they have looked so bad with the peeling issue. He hides his hands. I know he has eczema but I never knew it hit fingers that bad. :(

My 3 year old son was recently diagnosed with kawasaki syndrome. One of the later symptoms is peeling fingers and hands. Has your child recently had a high fever,stomach tenderness, or bloodshot eyes? If so get him checked fast. Kawasaki's has long term cardiac effects. It is a fairly rare childhood disease that can not be tested for and there is no vaccine.

I have the same problem with my 19month old son. It started last week and it has only gotten worst. Please if someone knows what this is reply I am very worried.

Thank You

Both of my children exhibited the peeling fingers and toes, took them to Ped and she said it was hand foot and mouth disease. They also had blisters in their mouths though so I don't know. I know my son still gets peeling skin on his fingers and toes, went to Ped about this, Ped made referral to dermatologist and dermatologist said that it can be due to dry skin or overly moist skin. In our case its due to dry skin caused by his eczema.

I have really bad Psoriasis. My fingers peel, so do my feet. It looks like a had a popped blister, but it wasn't. Almost like... an air bubble under my skin. I also have it on my arms, knees, back, and the top of my neck under my hair.


WHAT I DO TO GET RID OF IT!!!!!!!!!
Salt water. Beach salt water. Not water with table salt. no. Go to the beach. Soak in the water for 20 minutes. It'll be gone in a matter of days. I don't know what it is, it runs in my family. But ever since I was little, I'd go to the beach to keep it away. My whole family does the same. It works INCREDIBLY. I haven't been to the beach in about 3 months, and it's just STARTING to come back. My hands are all peeling, so are my feet. I have my rashes in my back, elbows, and knees. I'm going to the beach tomorrow.

ALSO. If you don't live close to the beach. You can refridgerate the beach water. That's what I do, since I'm a 40 minute drive. I bring lots of empty water bottles, milk containers, 2 liters, etc. And fill them up. Take them home, and put them in my fridge. If you set them in room temperature, bacteria can grow. So it has to be refriderated. When you're ready to use it, sit in your bath tub. Plug the drain. Pour it over the spot. And use a cup or wash cloth to pick up more water and run it over the spot.

Good luck. =] It works for me and my family, I just hope it works for you all.

my daughter has thyroid and i recently notice that her finger tips and the tip of her toes are peeling. I called her doctor and she said to also go to a dermatologist. Can anybody help me. PLEASE

hi
my 3 year old son has had peeling fingers about weeks agp, and now peeling toes. He also had fever, bad throat and v red rash a month ago. doc diagnosed Scarlet fever, I am worried bout Kawasaki though.

Mel.

I took my son to the pediatrician and he ended up having athlete's foot. His toes would be filled with air pocket like blisters (no fluid) and then the pocket would break and the skin would peel off in large sheets all the way to the toenail. We are treating it with Lotrimin.

I just noticed my son who is 2 years old has air pocket blisters on the tips of his fingers which are peeling. I have no idea what it is but another little boy from his daycare also had it. Doc told her just to watch it and that it was part of his strep (sounds stranger to me).

my twin boys are 2 years old.when they were born they would get a blister on just one of their toes and one on their finger. it would go away and months later i would happen again. i have no idea what it is can anyone give me advice.

My 2 year old son just had hand, foot nd mouth and due to this has now got huge blisters on his toes that are now peeling. so if you child is complaning of bad tummy,back ace or even come's up in little red spots that look like chickenpox but smaller then get them to the doctor's.

My daughter recently had a huge allergic reaction to strawberries and had giant/target hives that covered over 85% of her body. Now the hives are gone but her fingers and toes just at the tips by the nail beds are blistering and peeling....could the allergy be related? The hives lasted 4 days.

My son developed a case of peeling toes and fingertips three days ago and I have no clue what the cause it. The advice nurse said it could be fungus but of course there are NO appointments today or Monday. So I have to wait until early this evening to try the Acute Medical Clinic. I suffer from psoriasis and my son was thought to have eczema on his scalp.

His health is fine otherwise (some loose stool though). I am praying that it is nothing serious. I hope all of you find and SHARE the medical answers that you are given.

My 19 mo-old son has the peeling fingers and toes. One of his little fingers split and bled. He acts as though it doesn't hurt him, but he has been VERY cranky and screaming often. Not the kind of screaming like when you're in pain, but the kind annoying kind, although I think there's no correlation. He did have tiny chickenpox-like blisters on his face and back, but nothing really developed, so I just didn't bother taking him into the doctor.

Today my nanny took him in to his pediatrician and he suspected athletes foot, but I'm not sure I buy it. I'm out of town right now, but will be going back to see him on Monday because it can't be what he's suspecting.

Has anyone else had similar issues with their toddlers?

Eczema could be causing this problem for a lot of people. It's pretty common in young children. My dad actually has this pretty bad on his hands and feet. It's been much better since he switched to all hypoallergenic products. Eczema/contact dermatitis can be from an allergic reaction to things that get on the skin. Things that say "gentle," "baby soft," "for sensitive skin," "dermatologist recommended," etc aren't the same as "hypoallergenic." Also keep them away from perfumes and other irritating things. Try switching soaps, lotions, shampoos, and laundry detergent (the last two you may have to go with something mild--like baking soda based detergent--because hypoallergenic is hard to find).

After a month or so you should see some improvement if this is causing all or part of the problem. It's a pretty simple, low-risk fix that works for a lot of people.
