A member asked:

8 yr old has small peelings on feet upper sole and toes and hands(fingers only) no other symptoms and was not sick before no itching what can it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Eczema: Peeling of the skin on the hands and feet is often caused by hand eczema or dermatitis. It can be related to excess sweating, a mild contact to an irritant or allergen, or part of generalized allergy tendency like atopic dermatitis.
