I have similar problems and have found many solutions, but Vaseline and cotton gloves overnight are freaking amazing. Kinda gross though. It’s like the nuclear treatment, afterwhich normal moisturizer works for maintenance.
I don’t blame you … when your skin is literally melting into blistering flesh, you will try anything to save yourself. I remember when it first happened about 15 years ago, it went from a small open sore to full blown skin melting all over my hand, forearm up to my elbow the reaction was so strong. I was bandaged up to the elbow for about a month before I saw a dermatologist and it was scary because I thought I was done for and that it would only get worse.
So any nuclear option that is gross, ugly, weird or just strange is fine by me as long as it works.
Like the old saying … ‘If it looks stupid but it works, then it isn’t stupid’
