What Causes Dry Flaky Rash On Hand?

I have a rash on my left hand about the size of a dime. I have used ointments, lotions, alcohol and perioxide. The skin seems to be dry and a little flaky. My last resort was to apply Bevills lotion . . . seems to lighten up and shrinking. I only have a little left in the Bevills lotion bottle and this is no longer available to purchase. I have noticed that the rash gets really red when I wash my hands or take a bath.

Hi!! According to your history and the treatment you have taken it seems to be a case of fungal infection of your hand. You need to take antifungal tablet terbinafine and apply luliconazole cream for atleast 4 weeks .This will resolve your problem permanently and you will not have any recurrence.
