The symptoms of exfoliative keratolysis are mainly white punctate blisters with scattered needles, the number of which is uncertain, which gradually expands around. The central rupture forms superficial desquamation, and most skin lesions expand, which can be combined into thin-tissue-like epidermis peeling. The peeled subcutaneous skin is almost completely normal and often occurs symmetrically in the palm and sole.

Exfoliative keratolysis is a superficial exfoliative skin disease of the stratum corneum of the palm and sole. The etiology is unknown. It is a white spot about the size of millet at the beginning, which gradually expands around. It is similar to a blister membrane with dried blister fluid. It is easy to naturally rupture or tear into tissue-like scales, without obvious inflammatory changes and itching. It occurs symmetrically in the palm of the hand and a few involve the soles of the feet.
