    Ocd bad skin

    Anybody have bad skin due to hand washing? I sometimes don’t dry my hands or need them wet or covered in hand soap.

    I have bad deep cuts in my fingers due to it anybody else had this?

    Don’t wash your hands. Lack of germs is a health hazard!

    Why don’t you wash off the soap? You need to wash it off to clean them. And you need to dry them to avoid them getting so dry and cracked.

    Possibly because you wash your hands so much, the cut isn’t getting enough air time to heal.

    Get some good hand cream - the working hands one is good for really cracked skin, and put it on before bed.

    Neutrogena is also good. If you're washing your hands a lot, you need to take the time to dry them properly, too.
