There is no solution overall, but here is what I have done:

I play tennis so if I use band-aids before i put a lot of pressure on my fingers, it seems to keep the skin intact. I need to use the band-aids every time because I will surely get a split if I skip using them. Use a lot of hand cream multiple times per day. It helps. Sleep with cotton gloves on. My oncologist says to use Vick's VapoRub on my hands and then cover with cotton gloves. I have found that Bag Balm is just as helpful and does not have that really strong smell.

Re: toes. I don't know how to prevent the damage to the toenails, but I got a MRSA infection after I had my toenail dig into the side of my toe. So my advice is to keep your toes really sterile, particularly if you get changed inside a gym locker room.

Rash: I never have gotten the rash you are talking about, but I got yucky acne. Retin-A works wonderfully. The acne goes away in just days. Is the rash acne?
