If it starts as small blisters that then dry out and your skin cracks, turns red and itchy, I had the same thing for years.  Dermatologists had no idea of what my problem was.  I took my daughter to the hairdresser for a cut when she was 7 and she recommended a product called Cure Care for dry scalp.  After using it on her for about a week I noticed my hands cleared up.  As long as I used it I had no problem with my hands.  When I ran out, my hands particularly my fingers blistered again.  I have used this for over 30 years.   You might want to try it.  It is available at Sally's Beauty Supply and it is not expensive.  If you don't have a Sally's near you, try the website.  It's also great for your hair.  I know it sounds weird but it really helped my hands.

Have you tried using tar compounds on it?  This can be purchased OTC in the USA.
