What do they recommend you wash your hands with? just soap and water? Do I need some special solution that helps better remove toxins?

Good old hot soap and water will suffice. Anti-bacterial soap is good as well, just don't use the latter to much. Also, keep an eye on it, no pun intended. Often it is just salt water irritation or several other possibilities as listed in this thread and others in this forum.

Good luck.
