So, I have this weird habbit in which I like to peel the crusts on my skin and sometimes eat them, I feel a weird and nice sensation when I peel the crust and even tough it hurts a little bit,I also feel a little rush/anciety/pleasure, I experience the same kind of rush/anciety/pleasure by applying very hot water while in bath to my eczema injuries. Is this normal?

    Peeling, yes. Eating, no.

    I, too, derive pleasure from cutting the thick callus off my feet. Then I can feel soft carpet (and the like) while I walk. Then a good foot massage feels GREAT!!!

    Wouldn't want to eat the shavings, though.
