RE: Skin peeling off my feet
Cath, It dosnt sound odd at all!
My other half quit his job recently, and it was because of his job that I have been able to stay at home and look after the children. Dont get me wrong, it dosnt mean we are well off, it just means he earns enough for us to manage, if I worked, we would be well off.
Its not till reading your post that my skin shedding problem became obvious when I was aware of his intentions to quit.
Fortunatly he has walked into a job that will allow me to carry on staying at home with the children, and the shedding has stopped.......so far[&:] I do think it is all related.
peeling feet
My mom also has peeling feet. Most of the time it is just her left foot. She is bed bound for the most part and has not always had this. Just in the last few months.:(:( I put lotion on her feet everyday and seems to help. After the peeling is done her feet are pink and soft, but within a few days to a week it starts all over again. She says they really don't itch much except sometimes on the inner part of her arch. She is not able to go to the doctor and is on hospice. The nurse has seen it as well but really don't have any answers. Some of the flakes that come loose are really large! I was just wondering if anybody else would have suggestions on what else I could try. :confused: thanks
I have also had several occassions of my feet peeling. Recently i completed my D of E Gold hike and having my feet soaked in water for basically 3 days meant they were peeling for a couple of weeks after. People may have told you this before but really do make sure you dry in between your toes as this can often be the cause.
Another factor could be that you are allergic to your socks as i had peeling feet and then changed my socks and it completely stopped - recommended to me by my chiropractic aunt!
foot peeling
I completely empathise with this problem. I believe you have nothing to worry about.
Can I ask, do you have quite hot or sweaty feet?
I have a problem called 'hyperhydrosis'- in other words, I have uncontrollably sweaty feet and hands. As a result, every summer when the temperature increases, my feet tend to peel, sometimes in big strips, and sometimes just lightly like small blistering patches. This is because they are effectively rotting. You don't need to have hyperhydrosis for this to occur, so hearing that you get it after alot of walking and the same for all of the above mentioning D of E and soggy feet. If your feet are hot and wet for a prolonged amount of time, the skin can die.
There are many treatments for this. If you dont sweat alot, I would suggest wearing light socks and breathable shoes when walking, and washing your feet every day, drying them well, and moisturising. Also avoid bathing for hours and allowing your skin to wrinkle. Open shoes help too.
As for treatment of hyperhydrosis, I have tried and tested one treatment, "Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy", which is to have a nerve cut near the collar bone, which ceases blushing and some sweating on one side of the body. If it succeeds you can have the other nerve cut for the other side. I had this done and although my sweating has decreases exponentially in one hand, I get compensatory sweating elsewhere. I also was one of the 2% of people who got 'Horners Syndrome' as a result of the operation, which I believe has ruined my face. Because of this I didn't want the second operation and so now blush noticably on one side of my face and not the other when exercising.
There is another treatment I have not tried, which is to put your feet in an electrolysed water bath twice a day. It passes currents through your feet which cease the sweating and therefore the foot-rot.
I do believe foot-rot is likely to be the case for you and certainly for the D of E girl mentioned above due to her activities.
Hope this is a help 🙂
I thought us reflexologist were not meant to diagnose:rolleyes: LOL!

I have plantar fasciitis in both feet. I could feel how comfortable these sneakers were from the moment I put them on - EVEN BEFORE I STOOD UP!!! I could feel the heel of the shoe cuddling my heel. I can not bear to wear anything but my orthofeet shoes! I like the hammer toe for toe comfort. Fit is great. I like the colors and the mesh.
RE: Skin peeling off my feet
Just another thought - do they tingle at all or have little round spots from which the peeling starts?
if so could be a fingal infection ( not , but like , athletes foot) - a chiropodist could confirm
My daughter even ordered a pair for her clinical training for her medical program as she knew shed be on her feet a lot. They are super comfy and definitely worth every penny that I payed. Love Orthofeetand I recommend them whenever someone mentions having heel pain. Told all my co-workers about them. Simply LOVE them and will defiantly be buying more!
