Hi Susannah,

Welcome to our forum.

I am not a doctor, but I do suffer from very dry hands. I found O'Keefes hand cream very good for healing fissures and it works quiteuickly. This is an American product. It is quite expensive, but well worth it. I would expect the cotton gloves to dry up the hands even more. Has she tried vinyl gloves? She probably wouldn't need to use these all the time, but they might help to start with.

The crea is available in Boots and most pharmaceutical stores.

Please let us know how she gets on.

Kind regards,
Jolamine xx

Hello,

            l suffered on both hands and feet and used neutrogena hand cream which really does a good job preventing them from drying out and cracking,again available in chemists,

   hope this helps,
