Continuously washing hands with hand wash and water will eventually make your skin dry what is important is to apply moisturiser after washing it
It can be a good body moisturiser or as basic as coconut oil which is a very good natural moisturiser so the moisturiser helps in maintaining the hydration of skin.
Try this for atleast a week if it still persist get a consultation done
