Hi.. you have a condition called as keratolysis exfoliativa .. its a self limiting allergic condition.. just use a moisturising lotion. You should be fine . If you have itching then use leocetrizine tablets..

Such symptoms may occur due to hand dermatitis / pompholyx. This may have occurred due to contact with an allergen or some other causes. For now you can use Vaseline jelly. See a dermatologist if symptoms persist or if they recur.
