What's going on with the peeling skin on my hands and feet

Peeling of the hands and feet is more common in winter, and many people experience this phenomenon. Of course, in addition to winter, when the weather is dry, peeling of hands and feet is also likely to occur in other seasons. When people find that the skin on their hands and feet is peeling, they may feel confused. What is going on? There is a reason for the existence of any phenomenon. Let’s analyze the reasons in detail below.

1 Peeling of hands is most common in early spring. Peeling of the palms and feet is common in spring, which is mainly related to the dry climate. Keeping the skin moisturized properly and supplementing with vitamins such as fresh fruits, vitamins A, B, C, E, etc. are helpful in maintaining skin health. Peeling of the palms and feet is the most common symptom in early spring. If this symptom occurs, no measures are needed because it will heal automatically in about two or three weeks. You can always carry hand cream to apply on your hands.

2 Peeling of hands in spring is very common for some women, especially some middle-aged and young women. In fact, it is related to the patients' frequent use of soap and laundry detergent. Generally, no treatment is required, but you must pay attention to reducing the number of hand washing, and do not use soaps and laundry detergents with relatively strong alkaline to wash your hands.

3 Of course, there is another situation that can cause peeling of the hands, which is a symptom caused by a lack of vitamin B2. If you are lacking in vitamin B2, it will generally cause symptoms such as local peeling and cracking. At this time, you only need to supplement vitamin B2 or eat more vegetables and fruits containing vitamins.

4 It is recommended to apply topical vitamin C injection to the affected area twice a day for three days as a course of treatment. It has a good effect on the recovery of skin lesions. Wash your hands first, wait for them to dry slightly, pour vitamin C injection into your palms, then rub the liquid evenly with both palms, and wash it off when the liquid dries and turns white. Twice a day, two milliliters each time. Usually, you should try to avoid contact with alkaline things such as laundry detergent and soap.

Especially for people whose skin peels frequently, they should remember to carry some hand cream at all times. If the peeling is caused by a lack of vitamins, you can eat some fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins. You should remember to drink more water and avoid direct contact of your hands with irritating substances.
