My 3 year olds fingertips are red and peeling. Anyone had this happen to their child? He has no…

I was thinking maybe eczema ??

@k.i.k.i, I thought about that. I just find it weird that it’s ONLY his fingertips 🤔

Yeah I've never seen in the fingertips I have eczema on my hands and my skin peels like to but it's in between my fingers tho ,, does baby scratch have you notice if he scratches ?

@k.i.k.i, I haven’t noticed it. He doesn’t complain about it at all.

@downtherabbithole hhmm maybe try petroleum jelly lol that's my go to sometimes lol

@k.i.k.i, Im gonna see if bag balm helps with that. Lol. I’ll keep an eye on it and take him to the doctor if it doesn’t improve soon.

It does kind of seem weird it's just his finger tips. Did he happen to touch anything hot or take a really long bath recently?

@leahkay, He doesn’t take long baths. And I can’t think of anything hot he could have touched. I keep looking at him and catch him kinda rubbing at it. I ask him if it hurts and he just snatches it away. Lol. He doesn’t wanna be bothered.

Has he had hand foot and mouth in the last 3 months? My son last year and 3-4 months after his hands were like that, it’s a symptom after having it

@duckduckgoose, No he hasn’t had it.

My daughter's does this too!!!!! I narrowed it to maybe eczema? She had hand foot mouth when she was two but it hasn't had it since.

I use eczema cream and it seems to clear up but when she breaks out her skin is like raw and peels.

@floralfairy, Just his fingers.
