Hi there.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

I have read your query. The area many reasons the skin on your feet are peeling.

It could be due to dry skin, dehydration, skin disease due to infection, rough footwear, barefoot walking, vitamin deficiency, allergies etc.

It is important to consult a Dermatologist in thus regard to find out the cause for the same and treat this peeling accordingly.

You can use Dermatologist prescribed moisturising creams or oil like Johnson baby oil which help to replenish the skin. Avoid rough footwear or barefoot walking. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. Drink 1 to 2 lets of water daily.

I hope I have answered your query.

Thanking you.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
