Hi You seem to be having recurring hand eczema. This is especially common with repeated activities in water and using soap and detergent which strops the skin of the oils. Please stop using soap and hand sanitisers frequently. Use a cream based moisturiser often. Please contact a dermatologist who can prescribe the correct creams. It may take a few weeks to complete recovery
