2018-06-04 - Skin starting to heal after past 6 weeks of being really bad

Last few weeks have been really bad in general (since last post, end of April). Very itchy, very red, weepy. Skin on hands in patches, splitting, bleeding, cracked. Horrible.
Left NZ for USA on the 26th May and I started noticing my skin getting better. Not sure if it was change of environment, change of stress levels or what. I did also start covering my arms in SudoCrem and tubular bandages at night and sometimes during the day. That certainly helped relieve some of the heat and itch.
Feels like I'm going through waves of flare and peace, with things slowly tracking better. Fingers crossed I'm coming out of it after nearly 6 months...

 Fingers and top and sides of hands appear to be healing after splitting for weeks, but still really itchy:
