I just cut up some squash and onions. Why does the skin on my hand feel tight now?

It looks like I have dried glue on my hands. I have washed them and they still feel tight. I put lotion on and that helped some.

Could be a mild allergic reaction the the tiny hairs on squash. I hate those hairs, makes me itch.
Reply:Squash is starch based, that's why you feel dry, same as potato's.
