Evening primrose oil can help with eczema... it has to be taken for a few weeks before you'll see a response, but I do know it has helped and cleared up eczema completely. It needs to be taken regularly, if you stop it the eczema can return.
It also seems for some people that warmth/humidity can make eczema flare, I know of some who are fine during the winter but have problems with it during the humid summer months, when it can flare up wildly. It may be that the airtight nature of the gloves in general holds in enough heat and humidity to contribute to the situation. And for what it's worth, I know of some people who never had eczema and then developed it in their perimenopausal period with all the hormonal changes, don't know if it pertains to your medic, but one more thing to consider.
