Q: What is this it's eating so much and getting the skins hard and some small pieces of skin removing that site A: From your photo and description, this looks most likely like hand eczema/dermatitis irritated dry skin with thick peeling skin, and sometimes this can also be a fungal infection of the finger skin. I cannot confirm exact diagnosis from image alone, but here is what to do now: What to do 1. Do not peel or scratch the skin. 2. Wash gently, pat dry. 3. Apply a thick moisturizer petroleum jelly or fragrance-free cream 3 to 4 times daily. 4. Avoid soap/detergent/chemical contact; use gloves for wet work. 5. If itchy/inflamed: use hydrocortisone 1% cream thin layer twice daily for up to 5 to 7 days. 6. If it looks ring-like/scaly and keeps spreading, use clotrimazole 1% twice daily for 2 to 4 weeks instead do not use steroid alone if fungal infection is likely. See a doctor soon if - pain, swelling, warmth, pus, bad smell, fever - rapid spreading - no improvement in 7 to 10 days - recurrent problem If you want, I can help you decide whether it is more likely eczema or fungus by asking 4 to 5 quick questions.
