What causes peeling of fingers?

Many friends are prone to peeling of their fingers in spring or summer. If the symptoms are severe, the entire hand will peel. Some patients will also have symptoms of itching. Not only does it make people feel very uncomfortable, but it also has a certain impact on people's lives. Unfortunately, many friends don’t know why their fingers are peeling.

Generally, Chinese medicine explains peeling fingers as blood heat, but Western medicine believes that the reason why people experience peeling fingers is due to a lack of vitamins in the body, or it may be due to a lack of water in the body. I suggest that friends who want to solve the problem of peeling fingers should first understand what causes the peeling of fingers.

Palm peeling is often accompanied by excessive sweating of the palms, so some people believe that it is related to poor sweating. Hand shedding is often seasonal, occurring mostly in the hot and humid seasons of late spring and summer, and often recurring for many years. Most patients have experienced excessive mental stress and anxiety before the onset of the disease. Others believe that it is related to fungal infections in other parts of the human body, such as tinea manuum and pedis. This kind of peeling phenomenon will occur in patients in late spring, summer and autumn every year when the temperature is high, the humidity is high, and the patient is overly nervous and has excessive sweating on his palms.

This is because the stratum corneum of the epidermis separates from the underlying epidermis. At first, some small white spots appear on the palms, and then gradually expand to form dried blisters of varying sizes. A layer of whitish stratum corneum appears on the surface, which can naturally break and fall off like a layer of translucent thin paper.

If it continues to fall off, what will be left behind is a large area of ​​pink new growth that looks like a map. If you tear it off without waiting for it to fall off naturally, bleeding and pain will occur. In addition to the palms, the same shedding can also occur on the toes. It's not a disease, it's normal.

Now that you know the causes of peeling fingers, if you want to solve the problem, you can soak your hands in warm water more often, and be sure to pay attention to vitamin supplements. At the same time, you should pay attention to maintaining an optimistic mood and maintaining good living habits. Only in this way can you reduce the occurrence of peeling fingers.
