You may notice your
hands and feet are dry or cracked, or your nails feel brittle.
Most often a bit of TLC can help you deal with these annoyances.
(However, if the areas become painful or inflamed, consult your
doctor.) First off, keep feet cool, dry and clean and don’t
pumice or scrub too harshly. Use nail clippers gently, so you
don’t cut the skin. If you get professional manicures or
buff-shines, do not allow your cuticles to be cut – and
insist on fresh implements and soaking solution. Finally, good
oral hygiene is also important during treatment, and you should
consult your dentist for more information on dental and oral
care.
