I have experienced some itchiness on the back of my hand and from few spots it has turned little black too so am monitoring it closely now and stopped using hand Sanitizer as I feel this is the reason for it and hopefully the cream or ointment am applying on hand works otherwise I need to see a dermatologist very soon. How is the situation of Covid in your country?

You might have an allergic reaction from one of the components.

I seldom use handsanitizer. I prefer wash my hand than use it when iam at home or at office. But if i go outside and there is no water and soap, i use hand sanitizer. By the way covid in my country still increase until 7000 case every single day. It make me worried to ho outside

We got 2k cases today It's been a rollercoaster for us. The cases go up and down. I hope tomorrow it'll go back to 1k. Then lessen even more. I hope the doctor can prescribe meds for your hands.

Hope the cream and ointment help heal your hands. I don't use much sanitizer because I don't go out very often. I just wash my hands a million times a day.

It is a rule in America to use hand sanitizer as well as keeping my distance from others as well as wearing a mask.
