    Change to Jojoba (ho-ho-ba) oil or something with it. Might cost a bit more but it closely mimicks (not like evolutionary mimic, like just by chance is the same) your skin’s oils which should help you get back to normal eventually.

    Also the heavy duty stuff like O’Keefe’s in small amounts on problem areas like knuckles if they need extra time to heal.

    -Advice from a massage therapist, literally bathing in lotion for a job.

      Thanks for the tips!

      My doc has me using a diabetic lotion, does that change anything? I’ll definitely see if I can find something with jojoba, too. I’m always looking for something better. Haha.

      Also really appreciate the pronunciation guide, because I would’ve sounded like an ass when I asked for it otherwise. Lol. Thanks.
