I have had great success with taking flax oil every day and using Crisco on the skin. Both of these have been recommended to me by Doctors. They have helped me.

Perhaps apply at night and then wear cotton gloves before sleeping. The key is to continually lube those hands, preferrably with ointments rather than lotions as ointments will stick on longer.tracey.becker1@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606831315390042198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37312462.post-26139040953963028462007-12-12T08:37:00.000-08:002007-12-12T08:37:00.000-08:00My hands do the same thing in the winter.
