It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, and physical examination Apply emollient to the affected areas, You may need to do that multiple times a day. If that does not help, it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!

You may have a fungus or yeast infection on your feet. You can get an ID reaction from the infection on your hands. I suggest you have tis checked out.
