In the cold weather particuarly my hands become very, very dry and knuckles become cracked and bleed and are obviously a little painful. To try to prevent this, I have invested in a variety of moisturising treatments that temporarily improve thier condition and I always wear gloves outside. More recently I have noticed that the skin on my hands also has a smell, on the palms too. The odour smells yeasty - like mild smelly feet (which I don't have, fortunately). Is this bacteria and how can I blitz it please?

Thank you, Nikki
