Dry hands
 
Hey how u guys. I have super dry hands right now. Any suggestions? I've heard of foot and hand syndrome but I don't think this is it. They feel like sand paper. Any help, my last thc was one week ago and not sure how soon the foot and hand starts, but this only started yesterday. Aveno seems to help, any suggestions?

Hi MaryAn! I've heard that "udder cream" works well. I think that's what it's called. Good luck! Hopefully someone will chime in with some good advice for you.

Mabe just some coco butter like palmers. I use it all the time and throughout my treatments that im going through now and have not yet had any issues w/dry skin. I put it on twice a day. Good Luck.

Aquaphor sold at most drug stores (Walgreens/Target) kind of greasy like vaseline but does the trick with one application. My cousin is an RN and this is what they use in the hospital.

Natural alternatives - Organic coconut oil or olive oil - both wonderful but usually require multiple applications throughout the dy.
