What Could The Dry Patches On Skin Be?

I have 2 dry patches on my right hand, 1circular, 1 oval.

The circular one is on the back of hand under the pinky. It started about a week ago, just looking dry & scaly. Hasn't changed much past that point.

The oval one is on my palm, right in the center. It seems to be starting the same as the 1st one.
