Peeling Hands

[Cathie]

It seems one or twice a year, my older son's hands get itchy and then the skin peels. He's like a snake shedding his skin :lol: It's only my older son who does have some allergies. This doesn't happen to my younger guy. Anybody know why?

I used to have the same thing when I was little...on my feet.
Twice a year or so my feet would peel. My mom had it checked out but there was nothing to it...no fungus or else. It never itched, and peeled right off.

I still get it every so often but much smaller areas (quartersized maybe) and not very often. I am not concerned about it.

Thanks Maria!

Do you happen to have alleriges?

[Maria]

Nope! Not that I know of...
Well, the only thing I can think of is an occasional reaction to nickel but I think a lot of people get that...costume jewelry.

Zachary's allergies are seasonal. I was just wondering if they had something to do with it.

i had a friend in that used to put something on her hands and sleep with gloves at night. I think she had the same thing.
