My cat is limping. His paws are dry, pale, and peeling. What's wrong?

Question

My cat is limping very bad with his front legs, switching them and finally I maybe found the reason,his paws are very pale and dry and in some places covered with white peeling stuff,hard on touch, which doesn't fall(his nose is more pale and dry than usual too),he stays only inside or in our backyard and we don't use any toxic materials on the both places,I even don't wash my floor with any regular stuffs that might be toxic,what could be the reason,how can I treat him?Thank you much in advance.

I strongly recommend a full vet check as soon as possibel - these are very unusual symptoms and require a full check up and possibly biopsy. If you could attach some pictures it may be helpful, and an omega fatty acid supplement can help both as a natural antiinflammatory and also to soften and repair skin surfaces but a full physical exam from a vet will stll be required
