The ruling on covering the hands was previously mentioned. It is not a condition to cover them with gloves; rather, they can be covered with an abaya or other means. So, if gloves cause inflammation, the hands can be covered by any other means. It should be known that covering the hands is only obligatory when a woman appears before non-mahram men.
