What Is The Remedy For Peeling Of The Skin?

For over a year the skin on my nose and chin peel so bad that it feels like I've been chemically burned. At times the skin on my nose feels stiff like leather and i have permanent red welts around my eye brows and chin. So far no treatment has worked. If anything its worse.

Hi,

Peeling on face might be due to either seborrheic dermatitis, nutritional deficiencies, photo sensitivity or some interna disease. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and and aetiology of the disease.Avoidance of soap application, sun exposure and cosmetic use may be considered.Apply mild steroid with antibiotic cream daily. Take antihistaminic like levocetirizine if itching is there. Short course steroid may be taken. Avoid worries and tension. Take nutritional food. Vitamins tab may be taken. Avoid alcohol. You may be alright. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
