Severely itchy rash of the hands suggests the possibility of eczema. You need to keep your skin moisturized by applying emolients regularly.You may consult a dermatologist and inquire it's severity and if needed he may prescribe a topical steroid cream like mometasone.Oral antihistamines like fexofenadine may also be used to reduce itching.
