It’s easier to say where my body doesn’t hurt at this point. I guess my hands are ok. Well no scratch that the bastards dry up in winter and resemble bleeding salt flats… fuck.
Oh, God, that’s the worst. They’re dry AF in the summer, too, but when winter hits, if I don’t keep applying lotion every 7 and a half minutes like Cassandra from Doctor Who, then I just leave little snail trails of blood on everything I touch!
I know, but I’m in a shitty cycle. It started when I was about 15, I’m 32 now. It’s just been a constant battle. I don’t know what originally caused it, but when I was a teen my hands just got super dry painful. I dealt with it for weeks, and then started using lotion. Have been using it ever since.

The excessive use of lotion is probably what’s doing it. Your skin stopped making it’s own protective oils. What you’re experiencing is not normal.
