Im 18 my fingers have recently started to become very dry and they peel a bit. Could this be caused by stress?

Question

I have lived in Florida for my entire life so i doubt its the weather, because this has never happened before. I dont know if it could be some kind of skin infection, but it doesnt look like anything is accually wrong with my fingers. I would like to know what over the counter products would work the best, please. =D
THANKS A LOT

Answer 1

its caused by old age.
it could also cause you to write numbers backwards.

Answer 2

I have a couple of questions first... Did you start a new job? Did anything else in your life change? Do you work with a lot of paper, or chemicals? I also live in Florida, there can be many reasons. I would start with why, before trying products. Can you think of anything you are doing differently? Are your eating habits changing? I may be able to help with more detail....

Answer 3

It's probably just dry skin. Go to the store and pick up a bottle of Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion with Aloe & Vitamine E and use as directed. I work in a printing shop and am constantly cleaning my hands with a harsh scrubbing soap or solvent, so I use it regularly in order to keep my hands from drying out.

Answer 4

You probably have a vitamin definciency. There's a great book called "Prescription for Nutritional Healing." It says that skin conditions like you describe are often helped by a vitamin E supplement. If you are really worried about it, though, maybe you should consult a dermatologist, just to rule out anything that can be treated very simply. Hope that helps.

If there changed into no definitely penetration by you and no semen discharge from you interior of her, there is not any way she will be pregnant till she has been energetic with someone except you. I truly have in no way heard of DRY HUMPING getting absolutely everyone pregnant, no remember how a lot you sweat. Dont take this answer the incorrect way, i'm no longer accusing your female friend of something, will be a hormonal replace she is going via with all this semi sexual sex. reliable success!!

Answer 6

When my younger sister was about 18 her hands started getting really dry too. I had her put this stuff by Mad Gabs on her hands at night and slip socks over her hands to lock in the moisture. Udder Balm (in the green tin) would work too. Make sure you drink lots of water too.

Answer 7

It might be something you touched. Try Neosporin (over the counter topical antibiotic). If you put it on at night and sleep with gloves on you should see a noticeable improvement. They sell gloves for this purpose at most drug stores near the cosmetics. If the Neosporin doesn't work go see a dermatologist.

Answer 8

You're drying out. Before you start putting chemicals on your skin and in your body, first try to get re-hydrated with water and healthy oils.

Drink lots of fluid, preferably water.

Also, include some healthy fats and oils in your diet, especially unsaturated fats from sources like extra virgin olive oil, avocados, and wild (not farmed) Alaska salmon. Also, eat dry roasted unsalted nuts, seeds and soybeans.

Answer 9

check out webmd and see if your skin matches echzema patterns. Otherwise, I would start by figuring out if anything recently changed in your lifestyle.

Answer 10

your best bet would be to see a dermatologist. don't use lotions if you need to put anything on your hands try olive oil is natural and won't harm your skin.

Answer 11

maybe you used some kind of cleaner that caused your hands to peel. house cleaners have chimicals, it happens to me all the time...just get alot of hand lotion on and it will go away.
