Different reasons for peeling of children's hands and feet

Peeling of children's hands and feet can be said to occur all year round, and such a symptom will affect the health of children. Therefore, when parents find that their children's hands and feet are peeling, they must pay attention to it so that the peeling of children's hands and feet can be improved as soon as possible through quick treatment. The following introduces the different reasons for peeling of children's hands and feet, and parents can learn about it as soon as possible.

Reason 1: Lack of vitamins

If your baby's hands and feet have slight peeling, it may be caused by an unbalanced diet or lack of vitamins. For example, vitamin A protects the surface layer of the skin. A deficiency can cause dryness and peeling of the skin. However, the peeling phenomenon caused by vitamin deficiency is relatively not too obvious, it is only small and mild.

Countermeasures: If the baby is diagnosed with vitamin deficiency after examination, parents should pay attention to the nutritional balance of the child's diet and give him appropriate vitamin supplements. For example, you can take some vitamin lozenges or eat foods containing vitamins. Your baby's skin may be peeling because he is lacking in vitamin A or vitamin B. Do not let your baby develop a habit of partial or picky eating. He can eat more whole grains or foods such as animal liver.

Normally, when the baby's skin is peeling, mothers will only think that the baby should drink more water and apply some skin care products, but in fact, balanced nutrition is equally important for baby skin care. If the baby's body lacks certain vitamins, it may also manifest on the skin, causing dryness, peeling and other phenomena, so parents must learn to distinguish and solve the problem in time after the baby shows symptoms.

Reason 2: Tinea pedis

If the baby's peeling skin is only on the hands and feet, parents should first consider the possibility of tinea pedis. Generally speaking, if it is tinea pedis, symptoms such as blisters and peeling will appear, and these symptoms will recur and even erosion may occur.

Countermeasures: If you suspect tinea pedis, it is best to take your child to the hospital for treatment. Doctors generally use a combination of oral and topical medications as a treatment method. In daily life, special attention should be paid to keeping children's shoes dry. At the same time, we should be diligent in helping children change shoes to ensure that their shoes are clean and hygienic.

First of all, the peeling of children's hands and feet is related to many factors. For example, vitamin deficiency, tinea pedis and other skin diseases can cause peeling of children's hands and feet. So as a parent, if you want to understand the reason as soon as possible and know what the cause is, you must first go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination, find out the cause, and treat the cause as soon as possible, so that the child's hands and feet can peel as soon as possible and recover through treatment.
