Go to the Doctor: Please then consider going to your physician to help you determine the best treatment. The physicians here do not endorse any products or offer specific treatments. This answer is based upon the assumption that you have already tried good moisturizing lotions, changed the soap you are using, and changed the gloves at work so that latex allergies can be ruled out.
