Most diseases we notice only if our health has seriously worsened, or the external manifestations are simply striking. If you have skin on your fingers, then not noticing this fact is quite difficult. And the stronger the peeling, the faster you will go to a specialist who, from a medical point of view, will explain what is happening and how to deal with it.
What are we most afraid of when we see that the skin on the fingers is clinging ? Of course, some serious, and even contagious disease. Yes, and it looks ugly, with some types of activity you simply cannot afford such hands. For example, if a woman works as a manicurist or sells food products, then clients or customers will involuntarily have wariness, or even complete rejection of this state of affairs. Agree, if the manicurist has skin on her fingers, who can guarantee that in a couple of days she will not begin to peel off just as much with her clients? You should not execute yourself for lack of tolerance, you show meritorious caution and vigilance if you do not want to contact someone who has a strange skin manifestation on his hands.
With this problem, they are first sent to a dermatologist, it is a specialist in skin diseases that can immediately and completely exclude or confirm the presence of infectious diseases. If you just have flaky skin, there are no inflamed and weeping areas, then, most likely, it is due to vitamin deficiency that clings to the skin on the fingers. In most cases, a complex of fat-soluble vitamins A and E, Aevit, is prescribed. In addition, to speed up the healing process, a special ointment with the content of these vitamins is prescribed. Funds can be prescribed both together and separately, but do not forget that the symptoms of vitamin deficiency and hypovitaminosis are very similar, and treat the excess of vitamin A and E with Aevita, at least, is short-sighted.
Why does the skin on the fingers fit, if everything is in order with vitamins? An allergic reaction is the second most frequent cause of skin peeling . Try to remember which substances your fingers have been in contact with recently. Dry peeling is sometimes observed when working with alcohol solutions, solvents, alkaline and acid solutions. If it does not come to a chemical burn, there is no swelling and redness, this does not mean that the skin has not reacted, dry peeling may well be a local reaction to caustic substances.
The most unpleasant and third most frequent cause of skin on the fingers is dermatological diseases of a fungal nature. Any other problems of this kind, as a rule, are not limited to fingers. If there is a fungal infection, then other symptoms are added to the peeling - burning, itching, slight redness, which over time can develop into a serious fungal inflammation and go to the nail plates. If dry peeling is observed in young children, then it will be most difficult to persuade the child to sit quietly while the healing ointment is absorbed.
Fortunately, there are not so many options, and most of the skin problems can be solved by a dermatologist. To clear your conscience, you can go through tests, but in any case, the doctor will write you directions if there is no reason for dry peeling. If you know exactly the cause of the ailment and can guarantee that it is not associated with allergic problems or lack of vitamins, then as a home treatment, you can lubricate the affected skin with a gentle baby cream. If the causes of peeling do not require medical intervention, then this measure may well be enough to eliminate the problem and bring the skin in order.
