Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 HI Eva, I also get little cuts particularly in my fingers...at the nails...I use a product called Skin Crack Care by Nexcare...it is sort of a roll on...almost like nail polish, it seals the cracks and then they heal quickly. Hope this helps..Debb in Cincy, Ohio rheumatic thin skin Hi, has anyone found a lotion or some help for very thin skin from Prednisone? My hands are still very tender, I have been off Prednison now for almost three months and I am going through a lot of problems with skin pieces coming of my hands and little cuts that all of a sudden appear and are gone on two days. I have RA, DM and SS. I am trying to drink lots of water and teas. Thank you, Eva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
