You could have OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder). It's psychological and can be treated

Washing your hands 50-60 times a day is excessive. I don't know how you're able to do that, you must have really rough skin. If I were you I would check with a Dr. It sounds like OC disorder. (Obsessive/Compulsive)

Actually, it's a sign of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder [OCD] but it is not treatable as mentioned. You'll live with it your whole life. The only thing medication can do is limit how many times you think about doing it. It's a good idea to go to a theropist and see if they can put you on a medication that can lessen your thoughts on wanting to wash your hands. But, it's not really a bad thing to wash your hands. There's a lot of people that don't.

You could have obssessive-compulsive disorder. As the name suggests, there are two parts to the condition, obssessions and compulsions; the obssessions being intrusive thoughts which lead to a compulsion (tasks or rituals) in order to attempt to neutralise these obssessions. So for example, if you are concerned the world is filled with germs and that you might get dirty, you may wash your hands repeatedly to compensate. It is also associated with sexual abuse (in an attempt to wash yourself clean).
Regular hand washing is a common symptom of OCD, but not necessarily the only one.

Apparently, YES.
Does your hands expose to dirts all the time?
If not, try to live like a normal person.
Its not mean that washing ur hand will keep away the bacteria’s. In fact, too much of wash will bring back the bacteria via water.

Yeah, you waste soap.
Forget about it - you just want to have clean hand. Make sure you use a soap with a moisturiser
