My skin on my thumbs and forefinger are the worst, although all of my fingers have the peeling skin, I am not sure how far down the skin peels for some of you but mime is deep, typing is horribly painful, even getting dressed hurts terribly. My fingers constantly feel as though they are on fire and now my bones hurt also. I have had this for approx. 2 years and nothing over the counter or prescribed is helping. Does anyone on this forum have the feeling of burning? I am desperate and need relief.

I HAVE RECENTLY BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH BOTH HANDS AND HEELS. MY HEELS BECAME REAL RED LIKE CHERRY RED AND IT WAS THE CALLUSES ON MY HEELS AS I HAD SOAKED IN A SALT WATER POOL FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS AND I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE SALT DREW UP THE IMPURITIES TO MY HEELS AND THEY TURNED SO RED AND AS HARD AS A ROCK.THEN SAME THING WITH THE HANDS AND AGAIN THINK SALT HAD SOMETHING TO DO THERE TOO. THEY ARE CRACKED AND SPLITTING IN PLACES AND MAKING ME FEEL LIKE I HAVE PAPER CUTS ALL OVER THEM THEY ALSO SPLIT AND BLEED. BUT THE MAIN THING IS NOW THE ENDS OF MY FINGERS LOOK LIKE I HAVE BEEN SWIMMING FOR HOURS WHEN I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THEM IN WATER...OKAY I RESEARCED ABOUT THIS AND FOUND THAT THE ONLY THING TO CURE THE HEELS IS A PRODUCT CALLED KERASOL THAT CONTAINS SALICYLIC ACID AT 2% STRENGTH AND HAVING BEEN USING FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS AND IT HAS HELPED TREMENDOUSLY AS COULD HARDLY WALK. I THINK THEY MAY HAVE ONE FOR THE HANDS JUST HAVEN'T CHECKED YET. I FOUND THAT THE AUQAPHOR CREAM IS AWESOME FOR BOTH HEELS AND HANDS. GOT IT AT WALGREENS ON SALE FOR 8.99 I THINK IT IS USUALLY AROUND 10.99. PLEASE TRY AS I SAID YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE ACID IN IT TO WORK YOU ARE JUST WASTING YOUR MONEY ON OTHER FOOT BALMS...HOPE THIS HELPS SOME OF YOU..

I have this problem, it seems to happen at the same time each year, the skin on my fingers starts to blister and then peel off (I can't help but pick it a bit too..) I went to the doctor one year and he said 'Ah, I've just been to a conference on this very problem' Great I said, what is it? 'Nobody knows' was his reply - how helpful. He gave me a steroid cream but I didn't like using it. Anyway since then I have discovered propolis cream which is the natural antiseptic made by bees, using this cream doesn't stop the problem all together but it's the best thing I've found to help and reduce it.

Yes I'm all of my research I have found that it is a type of parasite and if you PH your system to the correct balance it will go away you need 25% acid and 75% alkaline you can achieve this with GSE (grapefruit seed extract) it is high concentrated Vitamin C. Grapefruit seed extract not (grape seed) is capable of killing every kind of parasite known to man I cured scarotopic mange in my dog with it, it fights gingivitis gum disease and tooth decay. I wash my plants leaves with it I do everything with it and you can't overdose. Check it out

My fingers and thumb tips on both hands, the skin is peeling away and after two days its moved to palms as well. Can anyone tell me what could be causing this?

My finger tips have been peeling for the past month. But it's only my finger tips all 10 fingers. Even if I take a shower my finger tips peel and are now starting to split. It's uncomfortable and sensitive. I have been using emulsifying ointment and it seems to cause some relief.

I am having the very same issues. So tired of it. Once it appears to have gone away, I feel tingling in my thumb & index finger, intense itching & painful cracks. It cycles over & over.

Having read many of the posts, the solution to rid myself of this problem has been to eliminate all SLS products from my life. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is the chemical that makes products FOAM, like soap (face or dish), toothpaste, shampoo, shave cream, etc. In just two weeks, my hands & feet are back to 90% normal.
p.s. I've also been eating a banana every night and using the inside of the skin against my fingers for a few minutes. I'm trying to re-balance my PH, and the skin to skin treatment has really helped.
SLS is out of my life forever.

I suffered for five years with splitting and peeling fingertips ... It also occured on my feet ... 5 years of topical steroids (close to 15) prescritpions and various vitamins, supplements, and every imaginable topical ointment ... Cannot tell u how many visits to two different dermatologists, family doctor and allergist ... Was ready to go out on disability ... my fingers and hands were so cut up .... In desperation took things in my own hands; researched and realized I was histamine intollerant ...within 3 weeks of stopping histamines in my diet ... I was cured ... When i fall of the wagon and consume histamine heavy foods like beer and wine and tomatoes, bacon etc ... It will begin again on my thumb and index finger ... Check it out for yourself ... Just so you know they diagnosed me with eczema ...
