I've tried "NuSkin" and "Liquid Bandage", and those sticky circles, but they don't help much and sometimes make it worse. Any suggestions, tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hope I didn't break any forum rules by doing this.
I think there's a couple of threads about this. I dimly remember a tool to help with the needle but I can't remember what it's called (sorry). the callus will eventually develop; just take of your fingers until then.
