I get that same thing with the skin by my nails cracking and does it HURT. It's always on my right hand, too. Can't wear bandages because then I don't have any dexterity. I like NexCare; NuSkin has acetone in it and it burns like heck when you apply it.
I've been finally defrosted by cassiesmom!

When I worked in a file room I had hang nails like mad!Originally Posted by smokey the elder
I took Dermicel tape (sp?)- the plastic tape that use in ER/hospitals-and used that. Because you can peel off the width of the tape that you need? I could take 1/4 inch strips-about three inches long- and wrap them around my my fingers mid-nail.
It left me with enough 'feel' on my fingertips and protected my hangnails from getting worse.
As the day goes on the end of the tape begins to 'fray' -the tape is perforated so you can just peel off the end and toss it.

There is a product called "Zim's Crack Cream" (I kid you not - that's really the name - and used to get a lot of laughs where I worked) - it was developed by a pharmacist originally for use by cement workers.
Some people swear by it, but it really did nothing exceptional for me, and I think I've tried about all the remedies. Hot paraffin wax feels good, but isn't very long lasting IMO. I'll stick with the Gold Bond until I find something that works better.

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power
To know just when the hands will stop - on what day, or what hour.
Now is the only time you have, so live it with a will -
Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.

I have done the Vaseline thing and it's made them softer. I have an ancient jar that I remembered having.
I am going to Target tomorrow to see what they have.
I slept sans socks last night for the first time in a while, that was strange!
