Go to a Doctor: A doctor can examine your rough hands and come up with a diagnosis and treatment plan. Here is a quote for you. "I never did a day's work in my life. It was all fun" Thomas A. Edison

Dry Hands: Using soaps and hand sanitizer frequently throughout the day can be very irritating to hands so limiting hand washing can help. Moisturize your hands frequently throughout the day with a fragrant-free product (Vanicream, Eucerin). Also can try Aquaphor application on hands at night covered by cotton gloves to seal in moisture. Use rubber gloves when washing dishes or cleaning house.
