What could be causing my horribly cracked, dry, swollen hands?!


Question:

What could be causing my horribly cracked, dry, swollen hands?

My dermatologist thinks I may be allergic to something but I am not sure that this is the answer...I don't know! How can I figure it out? Has anyone else had this problem? I was using some type of steroid cream, but it wasn't helping. So, I went to another doctor and got a lactic acid lotion which helped clear up a lot of the dryness but the skin is still cracking and my hands are very painful. I have another appointment with the skin doc in a week or so, but any thoughts or information you out there might have will be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
