What causes baby's hands to peel?

Some babies have problems with their bodies, so they need to pay attention to timely treatment to ensure their health and avoid dangerous situations caused by these problems. In particular, some babies' hands are peeling, which requires more attention to treatment. So what is the matter with baby hands peeling? Let me introduce this issue to you below.

1. Exfoliative keratolysis. It is a superficial exfoliative skin disease of the stratum corneum of the palms and soles. The cause is unknown. The skin lesions are initially white spots the size of millet, which gradually expand to the surrounding areas, similar to blister membranes with dried blister fluid. They are easy to rupture naturally or be torn into thin paper-like scales. There are no obvious inflammatory changes and no itching. Low-concentration keratin peeling agents or mild lubricants can be used for treatment.

2. Hand eczema. It often occurs on the back of the fingers and the palm of the fingertips, and can spread to the back of the hand and wrist. It has unclear boundaries or small flaky skin lesions, which often crack due to finger movements. It is often affected by secondary factors and is stubborn and difficult to treat. Therefore, various external stimuli should be avoided in treatment, such as scalding with hot water, violent scratching, excessive washing, etc. Antihistamines can be taken orally, corticosteroid preparations and tar preparations can be used externally.

3. Ringworm of the hand. It is a skin disease caused by fungal infection, often limited to one side and accompanied by itching. The main manifestations of the hyperkeratotic type are excessive skin keratinization, roughness and lack of sweat, and skin cracking in the cold winter. Various antifungal topical medications are suitable for treatment, and oral antifungal drugs can be used in severe cases.

4. Use medication to protect the newly grown epidermis outside the peeling stage. You can apply Fukangjie ointment externally. 3. For patients with dry skin, thickened keratin and small cracks, you can apply "Fukangmei ointment" which moisturizes and prevents cracks externally. In addition, be careful not to tear off the stratum corneum that has not been completely peeled off, so as not to cause pain or bleeding.

The above is my opinion on this issue that I introduced to you. If the baby's body has the above-mentioned problems, then the baby needs to pay attention to take the above-mentioned methods for treatment in time. This will ensure that the baby's body will not be in danger due to the above-mentioned problems. Finally, I wish the child a speedy recovery.
