What Does Skin Peeling On Palate With Headache And Fatigue Indicate?

Hi, My husband has skin peeling in the roof of his mouth for around 18 months now. He is usually very healthy but these days he is always tired and has constant headaches. He has an unusual rash on his leg that wont go away and lumps on his back that are kind of like spots but are very hard and scar his back. i dont know if any of this is connected but i am worried that this peeling may be serious.

thanq for your query
the peeling you have described indicates mucocutaneous lesions. the exact form can be described only by biopsy. so u better consult a dermatologist.
the treatment would be topical steroids and sometimes immunomodulators.
the severe forms of certain mucocutaneous lesions can be fatal. so visit a dermatologist soon.
