I have "winterhands" ( directly translated from Dutch )that means that if it gets cold outside, my veighns get tighter and my hands
swallow, this can also make more fluid in the knuckles of the fingers, I think somewhere is a picture on gmc of last year where I thought this was guitar related, Now this year I found out is was Winterhands but because I play guitar, the effects could be more dramatic. But hey, We are men right Ill upload some pics if I got a cam to scare you guys Here is the topic of a year ago when the docter told me it was guitar and volleybal related and told me to calm down : https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=42350 |

Hey Guys, time for another 'manly' thread ! Does anybody else get really sore hands and fingers in the cold weather ? Mine get quite bad and the skin even cracks and splits which is quite painful. What do you guys do about it if you get this too ? http://www.amazon.com/Udderly-Smooth-Udder...ds=udder+butter -------------------- Carvin 6 string bass (walnut neck and body w/burl maple top)

My hands don't hurt, but they sure do slow down!
There was a similar thread on another forum where they discussed wearing gloves when playing in cold weather. Sounds freakish I know. I thought about developing a 1/2 glove that only covers the backs of your fingers and hands, leaving the palm side of your hand open / exposed. Would take some interesting material and something to adhere it with, and potentially painful to take off if you have a lot of hair on the back side of your hands, but hey! who knows!?! -------------------- The more I practice, the more I wish I had time to practice!

Well, actually.. I do use some Aloe Vera moisturiser that the GF has lying around.. I just... err... didn't want to be the first to admit it
Use lotion for your hands. Ben, you have a girlfriend...chances are she is carrying around this stuff with her and uses it like once an hour. Once every 10 mins more like the little yellow flowers. They will help you! I never thought I'd hear that phrase spoken to me. I've woken up in Skyrim - awesome !! Good call Wayne!

Yeah I can't imagine how bad it must be up there. |

Jojoba oil, it's the closest oil to our natural oil our skin has, I use it as a moisturiser all the time.

I never go out without gloves. It is quite helpful for me, never get cold hands or fingers.
