I find little relief from the skin on my knuckles drying, cracking & peeling
in large, unsightly, oozing patches (... I apologize for the graphic
detail...) after working on bonsai or on landscape plants even a short
while. I live with it, but my doctor and pharmacist both recommend for
treatment of the condition an externally applied steroid cream-- and the
pharmist recommends an anti-fungal cream, additionally. The after-the-fact
"doctoring" of disrupted skin with external creme application takes three
days to accomplish healing. Have others found a better solution--
hopefully preventative?

Best wishes,
Chris... C. Cochrane, , Richmond VA USA
