The skin of palm can be divided into epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue. The outermost layer is epidermis, which is divided into five layers, and the shallowest layer is called stratum corneum.

This disease often occurs in the palm, palm surface and sole of fingers. Because the epidermis of the palm lacks the natural barrier of stratum corneum, the bleeding and pain caused by palm molting not only affect the appearance, but also affect the social work and life of patients. At the same time, it also increases the chances of contact infection between some germs and viruses (hepatitis B, sexually transmitted diseases, etc.). ).
