[QUOTE="ChezMorgan, post: 34855, member: 12619"] I am really glad you found the cause of your foot problem ( peeling ), but i wanted to add something as i have suffered from this myself and thought I should make people aware of another reason for foot skin peeling. If you suffer from water retention or infection, ulcers or abscess's of the feet..... really anything that would make tour feet swell even slightly, then this can make the skin expand and die, thus causing peeling. I visit a Diabetic High Risk Foot Clinic every week, my podiatrist is amazing ! She saved me from having my left foot amputated and prevented an operation on my left foot. Soaking your feet in the bath , shower can be dangerous re Infections, if you have to soak your feet, it best to do it in a clean bowl, each foot separately so as to prevent cross contamination. I realize this might sound totally obsessive, but its the best advise i was ever given and it saved my feet ! [/QUOTE]
