Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
From the description, it seems you could be having hand eczema. To treat the same
Use a good hydrating cream meant for dry skin preferably containing urea nad lactic acid like cotaryl/remoiz/moisturex
Apply steroid salicylic ointment 6 percent twice in a day(propynate nf 6/topisal ointment)
Use mild soap like cetaphil/pears or dove to wash hands.
hopefully in few days, your skin will become normal.
Take care
