What Causes Blisters On Feet Leading To Skin Peeling And Dryness?
My feet blister and peel all the time. 30 years ago the doctor insisted I had a bad case of athlete s foot. This has never been contagious in all these years, sometimes clears up with cream for a few days but always goes back to drying and peeling. No medications or combinations recommended for a fungal infection work . What could cause this?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with blisters dryness and peeling of the skin of your foot with no improvement in treatment I am suggesting that you have developed a condition called exfoliative dermatitis
In view of this please do a skin snip test and schedule an appointment with a dermatologist specialist for expert clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
I hope this helps Regards
