Julie, I have the same problem with the corners of my thumbs cracking with deep crevices. It hurts so much and constantly have bandaids on them. The only thing that I find heals them is the Neosporin. I put it on at night and cover with bandaids. I remove the bandaids in the morning and keep them off until nighttime. I also use rubber gloves when my hands are in water. I like the other suggestions that the girls had and I think I will try some of those lotions.

My doctor told me to use it. Also a friend that was an army medic, said that is what they used in the field to pull wounds to gether till they got patient to hospital. What it was invented for. I have done this too.

i have extremely dry feet and my fiance had very dry hands. his doctor recommended aquaphor - over the counter lotion from walmart, etc. it has worked really well for both of us. i just apply at night and wear socks or he wears gloves and have seen immediate improvement the next day.
