Title
What is the cause of hands and feet peeling off without pain or itching?In traditional Chinese medicine, the skin is considered the "barrier" of the body, protecting the internal organs from external pathogens. Therefore, when the skin on the hands and feet peels off without pain or itching, it may indicate that the body's defensive function is weakened or that there is an internal imbalance. Possible causes include:
- Deficiency of the spleen and kidney: The spleen and kidney are the foundation of the body's health. Deficiency of the spleen and kidney can lead to weakness of the body's resistance, resulting in skin problems such as peeling.
- Dampness and heat: Dampness and heat are common pathogenic factors in traditional Chinese medicine. Excess dampness and heat in the body can lead to skin problems such as itching and peeling.
- Poor nutrition: Lack of essential nutrients can lead to weakened skin and increased susceptibility to skin problems.
