peeling fingertips

[Shannon Nelson]

What would be the rubric for skin peeling away from the fingertips?
Not excoriation, since there's no soreness? (At least not for the most
part.)
I think it's a fungal thing?
Thanks,
Shannon

Thanks, for some reason I keep forgetting that "everything" goes under
*eruptions*!!
But hm, only that one remedy... And then I see

Eruptions, excoriation, upper limbs, hands, which is nat-s, petr, and
sulph.

I think it's not all *that* uncommon a thing... Well, I was getting
ready to give her sulphur for other reasons, so I guess I'll see what
that does!
Thanks much!

In Kent it's strictly under "eruptions, desquemating". Use desquemation
instead of peeling.
Best,
Caro.

Sepia was under Extremities, eruptions, fingers, desquemating... I forget if
there were any others but Sepia I'm sure.
Best,

Yes sepia, but also 22 others! (Including sulphur, again.)
