Do you get enough water? The major cause of dry or itchy skin is due to a lack of your daily intake of water. Try drinking the 64 oz a day and see if your hands gets better. If this isn't helpful, you may be allergic to something.

Did you use anything abrasive like cleaning liquids, chemicals or bleach? Those things can dry out your skin and even burn it. No guessing, just make an appointment with your doctor and get some meds for it. Don't wait so long to see your doctor next time anything happens. Good luck!

you could be sensitive to latex dish gloves,or reacting to any number of food or contact substances.You need to visit an allergist to find out exactly the cause,a doctor is the only one who can officially diagnose your condition.Use some over the counter psoriasis creams until you can get in for the appointment.Neem oil is very good for this type of condition,and can actually speed healing.

Psoriasis, or extremely dry skin. I ordinarily don't suggest this, but you might want to see a dermatologist.
Now, my husband does have trouble with extremely dry skin on his hands, especially in the winter. About all we can do is give him extra water, and keep lots of lotion on hand.
