Asking for Mother, Male, 3 years old, Islamabad
My son has got this dry and patchy skin on his fingers for last two days.It seems like dry blisters and now they are peeling off.please recommend what to apply on his hands.he is just 3.4 years old
Hi
This could be due to number of reasons including skin problems like dermatitis etc
However in current context there is rise in such cases of peeling of finger tips with high temp in kids in the West secondary to Covid-19. Kids are showing symptoms of a disease called Kawasaki syndrome.
It’s best to see a paediatrician or a dermatologist at the earliest for your child safety

Has he been washing hands too many times with soap and water or has he been applying hand sanitizer too often ?
If that's the case, chances are that it's due to those things. Please don't let me do that too much. Apply Vaseline to his hands very frequently.
