During this pandemic, we have been washing our hands like crazy and a common issue that we are seeing is DRYNESS of our HANDS! I am happy you all are washing your hands during the COVID-19 pandemic but we are washing away the natural oils on our skin! This is DRY HANDS 101 with your KZfaq dermatologist with up to date recommendations on fairly new products that hit the market recently and are the best for you in the year 2020.
Healthcare professionals and parents are all suffering from xerosis of the hands and can progress to cracked, fissured hands. This will lead to inflammation and itching called hand dermatitis or hand eczema. This itchy rash can spread like wild fire up your arms and can even get infected with bacteria if left untreated. We need to break the "scratch-itch" cycle quickly with moisturizers and avoiding scratching.
In this video, we will review my favorite AFFORDABLE moisturizers for your hands which contain humectants like UREA and GLYCERIN. Urea is great for drawing in water and peeling away dry skin (keratolytic) and glycerin is another great humectant. These products can be easily found at your local store or on Amazon.
I also review dry skin or "xerosis" in general as well as gentle soothing body soaps/cleansers that can help in mitigating dry skin. Avoid frequent showers/baths and avoid harsh soaps as well as HOT water! The products are mentioned in my Amazon storefront at www.amazon.com/shop/danielsug...

Eucerin Roughness Relief: two versions that I like- 1) less urea and for large surface area of body (amzn.to/2xrZuFS) or 2) more urea and thus used as "spot treatment" on palms and soles of feet (amzn.to/3fac4dK)
