My son has both hands extremely dry, cracked, sore and kind of leathery. He can t work because he does construction. He is a Type 1 diabetic, alcoholic ( 6 months in sober living but recently relapsed). About 1 year ago he was putting pool cleaner in a pool and slightly touched with hands. He would not go to the Dr. Oh, did I tell you he is also very stubborn. At that time his hands got better but never totally healed. Now they have gotten real bad again. My husband died 5 years ago and I just can t not help my son. He has Medicaid, and we are near University of Colorado. Thank you so much, Joanne Brady
