My right hand only peels terribly and knuckles are starting to discolor. Im African American so it shows up pretty well. I use lotions, vaseline anything that will keep them moist but as soon as I wash my hands and they dry they look so bad. Its weird cause its only in that one hand. Also have layers of dead skin that forms at bottom of feet....have to use a foot scraper every other day. What causes such a thing? Im 42 and feet have been like that for about 20 years. The right hand has been like that about 10 years. Any tips or suggestions?
Hi I did review your concern. Your skin problems can be due to exfoliating lesions like psoriasis or eczema, or it can be due to systemic condition like dermatomyositis or Cushing disease or thyroid disease would recommend you to consult a dermatologist and meanwhile use a moisturizing lotion to prevent excessive scaling and Chat Doctor. A proper evaluation of the lesion will determine further course of action as to what tests to order. I hope this helps. Wish you all the best. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor.
