Athlete's foot?: You may have athlete's foot (tinea pedis). It can be a chronic, recurring condition that gets worse in warm or humid climates. Here's a link to more information, including over-the counter treatments: http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/athletes-foot/ds00317. If the description doesn't fit or the over the counter treatments don't work, see your doctor.

Eczema or infection?: Although fungal infection is a consideration, some forms of eczema can cause skin peeling as well, and this form is limited to hands and feet. Keeping feet dry, changing socks often may help. A form of bacterial infection occur as well but usually look like little pits on the bottom of feet not peeling. If it persists go to a dermatologist for further evaluation.
