Disease description:
The weather has been quite dry these past couple of days, and my fingertips keep peeling. I don’t have any hand cream at home, so I’d like to ask—what causes peeling of the fingertips?

Hello, there are several possible causes of peeling skin on the fingers, including: deficiency of certain trace elements in the body; fungal infection of the hands (tinea manuum); dyshidrotic eczema; contact with irritating chemical substances; seasonal peeling; excessive mental stress; physical overexertion; or use of certain medications. When peeling occurs, it is important to maintain a positive mindset, wash your hands frequently, and keep your hands clean and dry. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
