Is it normal to have dry, cracking hands all the time?

I use lotion multiple times a day, but it never works. My hands are constantly peeling and people ask me all the time if I burnt my hands because that's how bad they look. Sometimes, I even start to bleed. My parents tell me it's just a genetic thing that runs in the family and is completely normal, but I'm doubtful.

    Sounds like psoriasis maybe? You should see your doctor. There's prescription medications for it.

    Sounds like Psoriasis like I have, see a doctor for lotions and some wash, Aveeno is good and cotton gloves, I put cotton gloves in the fridge for if my hands itch.

    Try coconut oil inside and out.
