Contact Dermatitis of hands also known commonly as Housewive's Dermatitis is more common than you can imagine. Dryness of palms will both contribute and may result from said Dermatitis. Best to use cotton liners inside rubber 🧤 gloves before you wash dishes, clothes etc "Prevention is better than cure" For a more detailed discussion and specific treatment, feel free to connect Online or via an INSTANT Consultation on this portal or any other online portal eg Apollo's 24/7, Doconline etc 🙏
Health Tips
Aloevera or Zinc Oxide creams are useful emollients and barrier creams ... more the latter if a fresh preparation of cream can be made at your location.
