Hi,
Exfoliative keratolysis is a common skin condition in which there is focal peeling of the palms and less often the soles. The first sign is one or more superficial air-filled
blisters on the
fingers or palms. The blisters burst to leave expanding circular or oval, tender, peeled areas. These peeled areas lack a normal barrier function and may become red, dry and cracked. The symptoms are aggravated by exposure to irritants including water, soap, detergents and solvents.
