A member asked:

2 of my kids finger tips are peeling, it starts off as a white blister then it peels all the way to second knuckle?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to be evaluated: This could be something minor like an allergic/toxic reaction reaction to a soap but it could also be a sign of a significant systemic illness. I would schedule a sick visit with his doc at your first opportunity.
