One of my hands is peeling!

but not the other one! My right hand has all the skin on palm/fingers peeling off, and the left hand is totally normal?

Does it mean anything?

I had this too it freaked me out!! I discovered that I was allergic to flash kitchen wipes so I have now switched to dettol which do not contain bleach and I have been fine since.

What have you been, er, doing with your right hand?

aDad · 30/12/2006 13:18

sounds like contact allergy most likely.

winestein · 30/12/2006 13:21

I agree. My right hand used to swell up and feel itchy. Turned out it was the varnish on the handrails on the stairs at school.

Still want to know what Greeny has been up to though.... I think

Ah - could be the cheapo cleaning wipes I bought, I have been spring-cleaning a bit.

Cheers
