I have dry and irritated hands. I have frozen hands, even in summer, and I have a lot of eczema on the back of the hand and on the wrist. To relieve myself, I rub my hands together, but it causes a very intense burning sensation. Is it normal?

Are you experiencing symptoms that could be a mix of several conditions? For example, Raynaud's Syndrome, which is a blood circulation problem that occurs when exposed to cold or stress? It is possible that your symptoms are related to this. I recommend applying a good, non-scented moisturizer regularly, twice a day, ideally within 5 minutes of getting out of the shower. Low to moderate strength corticosteroid creams can also help to treat existing eczema lesions. If this is not enough, you will need to see a doctor to get a prescription for a stronger cream.
