If your talking about like curling-off skin out of the blue, GO SEE A DOCTOR!!

It’s just a little infection.Be sure to rest your fingers and hands.You can actually put salt over the bubbles and they’ll shrink in a few days.Leave the salt on the bubble for about three minutes,then, with a soft cloth carefully wipe off the salt bits.Don’t irritate the bubble.If it gets worse, go to a doctor.The peeling will spread a bit but don’t peel it.If it falls off, take a sponge with salt and a pinch of soap and start taking a sponge bath.Then with another cloth, a different one,shake off the soap and salt.Don’t be jumping off the walls and touching anything dirty or anything that will irritate your peels,bubbles,and hands.I’ve had this problem before.The salt will irritate the bubble positiviley and it will shrink, like salt on a slug.The soap will clense any germs or infections on the peels or on your skin.Like I said, the moist salt will cause the peeling to eliminate itself slowly.If this dosnt work or your problem gets worse, consult a doctor immeadeatly.(Please note that iam not a doctor but iam studying as a nurse.)

Answer #2

could have to do with the changes in the weather,working with chemicals,working in dirt. try to scrape off all dead skin that is loose and peeling and then use a good moisturizer,several times.

Answer #3

It’s not a blister. It’s probably psoriosis or some other skin condition.

See a dermatologist if you’re worried- but I’ll bet you it’s temporary. You’ll probably just have to put up with it for a couple of weeks.

Answer #4

When I first started reading your question I thought you had a blister . . . but after reading the whole thing I don’t know what that could be. Maybe really dry skin? Go see a doctor.
