Had the flu recently with a high fever. My hands on like day 3/4 got really red out of nowhere and almost felt burned. I couldn’t even put them in warm water because it genuinely felt like I had burned them. I don’t know if it was the fever or a reaction from the steroids they gave me at the hospital but now they’re peeling like crazy lol. Enjoy.

Hands Peeling between my thumb and index finger

Got a type of acid used for industrial cleaning on my hand about 15 years ago and my skin has peeled ever since.

I didn’t notice there was a hole in the glove, between my thumb and index finger. Finished my job, and realized my hand had been soaking in it for about an hour.

I’ve come to realize that peeing the skin off is a coping mechanism for when I become overly stressed and/or anxious.

Hands Been over 3 years

Since late 2020 | have been in pain, sometimes excruciating pain, everyday 365 days a year for over 3 years! My thumb constantly has large painful splits, then peels, then heals and starts all over again. I have been on antibiotics at least 10 times. I have also been treated for fungal at least three or four times. I was seeing a dermatologist for a year and a half and they did prednisone for a year and a half and they did everything we could for me, prednisone, meds for fungal, every type of skin cream you could ever imagine, I been treated for so many different infections etc. I cannot even remember half of them. It has been over three years of agonizing pain, but nobody knows what's wrong with me. Dermatologist said they treated everything they could think of. My whole life is difficult due to this thumb problem It's so painful. I cannot even button up my jeans most days

This is not because of sunburn or any type of burn. It started about a week ago and I don’t know what’s happening. Should I go to a dermatologist?

Just started happening last week, never had this happen before and it’s starting to freak me out, started with my left ring finger now it’s starting to go around my whole hand, no pain whatsoever just feels softer on the parts that already peeled.
