A member asked:

Well i don't know how to say it. erm my feet skin goes off, it has been about a week. is there any cream or will get better?

Peeling feet: I am not sure what you mean by skin coming off but i expect you are referring to your skin is peeling. The most common reasons would be athletes foot or eczema. For athletes foot use an antifungal cream and a Hydrocortisone cream for eczema.
