It looks like your skin is just irritated, probably from over washing like you said. Use some hand cream and see if that helps. It can spread to your hands/face, but you would know if you got it on your hands, trust me. It’d be open sores that don’t heal for over a week.
Because the skin on your hand is thicker than your genitals the main way you get transmission to your hands is via open cuts or cracked skin l, so wash your hands but don’t overdo it or you’re actually putting yourself at risk.
I know it’s all new and scary, I was there a year ago. Do research but don’t make it your whole life, it gets better. Just try to remember that millions of people have it and are doing just fine, you will be too! Try to find other things to focus on and put your nervous energy into!
