I initially started doing bodybuilding years ago and due to my soft and sensitive skin, the skin on my palms and fingers tend to peel off quite badly after each workout and decided to stopped bodybuilding and concentrate healing my hands and fingers first. But till today, the condition continue to worsen and the skin tend to crack with just the slightest scratch, contact with water and doing simple stuff like tying my shoelaces. My hands and fingers become like a thick mass of dead skin cells forming up like nothing on earth! Often at times, I am easily irritated at the sight of dead skin cells forming on my hands and fingers and tempted to peel or scratch off the dead skin cells off my hands and fingers till they turn reddish! I have avoided washing my hands, reduce the frequencies of baths and also tried using several moisturizing creams and still did not work for me! Could the manual peeling of the skin or nature of my work(construction worker) aggravated my conditon? Pls help me!
