Please consult your doctor or a dermatologist to determine whether you have keratolysis exfoliativa (peeling of the skin around the palms and soles) or a seasonal form of hand eczema (dry, itchy skin), which often flares up in the spring. Use thick emollients regularly to protect the skin barrier, and discuss the use of mild steroid creams or urea-based moisturisers to help manage peeling and irritation.
