Have you tried intensively moisturising your hands? The ingredients suggest that they are very drying. Otherwise, have you asked a Pharmacist?
I'll post the Product Safety Data Sheet link.

You are either sensitive to latex or the powder that some latex gloves have in them [to help you put them on].
Years ago, I used some cheap rubber gloves from a supermarket & they triggered a rash. I use unpowdered vinyl gloves or unpowdered nitrile gloves.
Have you been using hand cream since the episode? If your hands aren't recovering you may need some steroid cream for a few days, then stay away from latex gloves. You would have to see your GP.
Good luck
