"Anyone else washed their hands so much the skin is itching and turned red? "
Not itchy and red no, however, early on I washed my hands as normal and then with each of my offspring (encouraging the surgical clean procedure type thing) and yeah my hands dried out and became tender |

Wet your hands first.
Then add soap. (how it should be done)
Wash rinse and dry thoroughly
Use cream afterwards thin layer regularly.
Sudocrem good for redness.. But thin layer.
Most hands cream is good on a regular basis its the art of regular that many forget.
I Wash my hands alot nhs worker of 25yrs
Water first and apply hand cream regularly is the key |

I've been using normal soap and water but I think I've been washing my hands to much and it's made my wrists go red and dry, this skin is drying out.
I used cream but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. Still itching and red.
Oh, well I shouldn't complain il live |

Emolliant or a good quality hand cream. Said at the beginning that the number of referrals to dermatologists will rise after this. Hand wash and condition should be promoted instead of just hand washing. |
