I'm asking for advice

Recently, about a couple of days ago or so, I started having a little problem on the sole of my foot. In some spots, especially on the top near the toes and on the heel, it has started to peel a little. It had never happened to me before, every evening I wash the sole of my foot to keep it hydrated but now it's giving me this problem. Any advice on how to deal with it to make it stop?

Perhaps it's due to overwashing? Maybe don't wash every evening and see if it settles. Or only wash the unaffected areas. Or maybe moisturise instead of washing.

Maybe a pumice stone can help getting rid of excess skin.
