my palms and fingers have started peeling and the tips are bleeding. What could this be?

A few years back I battled with this myself.  It seemed to be 2 fold.  The doctor told me it was Dermatitis as well.  He suggested I use a very heavy moisturizer called Eucerine, and to put it on all the time, especially before bed.  To also make sure that when I washed dishes, or shampooed clients hair at work, or used any other cleaning agents etc. to be sure and wear gloves.  It did help but it didn't go away entirely, and at times when I was doing everything I should be doing it would flare up bad again.  I found that stress was another part of it.  As I started taking a B-Complex vitamin and continued doing what the doc told me, it did clear up.  Hope this helps.

This is concerning...I would see a doctor ASAP..could be a spider bite but not sure..some bites can lead to necrosis (sloughing off of tissue) so like I suggested better not to further postpone consultation with your doctor or the ER

See a doctor.  There are certain ailments that cause this to happen.

Possibly Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.  Could also be a symptom of diabetes.  See your doctor.

You could have a bone marrow disease that produces the pancytopenia, plus a vitamin B deficiency causing the megalocytes. Go see a doc, NOW

It's not too much sugar. It could be some sort of bacteremia (bacteria in the blood). There needs to be more tests performed to answer this question with certainty, but it could be a blood infection leading to abnormal erythrocytes. The swollen hands and face make me think that it's an inflammatory response to the infection.

It may be anything else. You should consult a doctor immediately.

Possibly birthmarks but you should have a doctor check them out.

there could be some infection there. Just put a clean dry dressing on every day. do not use neopsorin on it. This just keeps the area wet. Give it a couple more days. What you could do is take a pen and mark the area of redness on your arm and if the redness goes out of this area you know it is getting bigger and should probably get on an antibiotic. Sometimes the trauma to the area can cause it to be red. This is not always a sign of infection. If you start to notice a large amount of puss like drainage and redness, then get to a dr.

that's not dirt, it's skin cells and your hands are red because your body is trying to repair what you keep rubbing off

Yes,it is a skin condition,affecting mainly the palms and soles.\nThe symptoms are:\n1. Thickening of the skin of the palms and soles- this can be generalised,focal or punctate .--that's either the whole palm or sole is thickened,or just specific parts.\n2.Hyperpigmentation of the thickened parts--they get darker and/or redder.\n3.Associated factors differ with the corresponding syndrome.\nTreatment is with a drug called Acitretin.Prognosis is good.

If the bleeding has stopped, you are probably safe to let it wait. Change the bandage twice a day and if you see any signs of infection, such as unusual color, swelling, darkness in the tissues, etc. then see a Dr. as soon as you can.\n\nFinger Injuries Treatment\nSelf-Care at Home\nControl bleeding by direct, continuous pressure for at least several minutes. Elevate the hand above the level of the heart to help slow the bleeding. \nFind torn or missing finger tissue and save it for reattachment, if possible.\nGently rinse it off with water if it is very dirty, and place it in a sealed plastic bag. \nPlace the bag on ice water and bring it with you to the hospital. \nCover the wound with a clean, dry bandage. \nRemove loose dirt or foreign bodies.\nDo not try to remove objects that are deeply or firmly embedded. \nRun your hand under plain tap water for several minutes, scrubbing gently with a washcloth if needed to remove dirt. \nDry and then apply an antibacterial ointment. \nIf the finger is obviously deformed, immobilize it with a splint in whatever position is least painful.\nAlmost any small rigid item such as a popsicle stick, a pen, or a piece of cardboard can be tied or taped to the finger as a splint. \nA finger can also be buddy-taped—that is, taped to the finger next to it.

i could almost guess that you work with paper or someother miteral that dries your skin,the best way to heal>aply a good lotion to your hands and put gloves on ,wear then at night,those hands should start to heal just in a few days.
