A member asked:
I've got skin irritation on 2-4 fingers. on those fingers the skin is very dry and damaged. could this be an allergy or just pure skin problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Irritant?: The absence of itching suggests that this is not from a contact allergy but more likely from contact with irritant ( organic solvent used especially in an occupational setting) or too frequent hand-washing. See dermatologist.
