What medicine should I use for my child's peeling hands?

Many people have peeling hands. Some people have it because their skin is too dry, while others have it because of fungal infection. Children may also have peeling hands, but in most children this happens due to illness. So what medicine can be used to treat peeling hands in children? Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have different views on peeling of children's hands. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is mainly caused by dampness and heat; while Western medicine requires the use of antibiotics to treat it.

What to do if your child's fingers peel

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this is mainly caused by internal accumulation of dampness and heat, blood deficiency and dryness, malnutrition of the skin, and dryness and heat generating wind. Treatment should be to strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, nourish blood and dryness, and dispel wind and relieve itching. Therefore, use 10 grams of Atractylodes lancea, 10 grams of Phellodendron chinense, 10 grams of Anemarrhena asphodeloides, 30 grams of Coix seeds, 15 grams of Angelica sinensis, 30 grams of Rehmannia glutinosa, 15 grams of White Peony Root, 12 grams of Polygonum multiflorum, 10 grams of Kochia scoparia, 10 grams of Gentiana macrophylla, 10 grams of Saposhnikovia divaricata, and 6 grams of Licorice.

Lack of water and lack of maintenance is just one aspect. The real reason is bacterial infection of the skin and lack of vitamin C in the body.

My hands stopped peeling and became smoother and more tender.
