Stop eating your cuticles, lol

This appears to be a lack of melatonin. When you get sun, there should at least be some pigment.

Moisturizer

Get a brand called Cetaphil and use it on your hands every day or whenever they dry out.

I've worked in construction and I like working as a mechanic in my own vehicles ..... it means my bare hands get exposed to a lot of dirt, sand, mud, metal, oil and chemicals ... which means I have to wash with lots of soap and chemicals. In the winter it's worse in the dry cold air.

So my hands get dry chapped and even cracked and start bleeding. My skin is so cracked and broken now that I can no longer use my finger print ID on my phone. I've tried resetting it multiple times but a new crack forms and then no longer works again.

For years I put up with it and pretended I was a man that didn't need help .... but I got sick and tired of it and started using moisturizer and I really don't care what anyone says about it.

I still get dry cracked skin but not as often and not as severe.

If having lotion in your hands makes you uncomfortable, try just dabbing a tiny bit on the the backs of your fingernails and rubbing them against each other to spread it only on your cuticles. No slimy fingerpads or palms, and it really helps.

Mom turned me onto corn husker's oil. Figured since we shared genes, and it worked for her, might as well. Shit is the bomb. Tiny dab'll do ya, doesn't leave your hands greasy, dries fast, works fast, cheap, all that.

My fingertips split in cold and dry air. Apparently I got a weird gene from great grandma, never met another person with the problem. Tiny crack across the tip, skin dies and turns hard, splits deeper, rinse and repeat. And the pain is stunning, like having an infected splinter stuck in your fingertip. Got that shit this year working outside in February and into March. Only took a few nights of using corn husker's oil, GTG.

No.

I find just snipping off the skin tags with clippers keeps it from going too far.

Hello Anxiety, my old friend...

Your hands are dry. Use moisturizer. Or lather your hands in Vaseline before bed and sleep with cotton gloves. You will have a new set of hands in the morning.

Not all fingers, usually only 1 or 2. Now my left index and right thumb has these holes

Dermatophagia is a bitch.

Get some of that nail polish that prevents you from biting your nails and tastes really sour and put it on your skin instead of your nails. It won't stop you from biting necessarily but it will stop you from unconsciously biting.
