I have cracked dry hands and wanted to know what vitamin or mineral deficiency that is?


Most of the 6 cracked areas are around creases where my fingers bend.
I may be dehydrated for sure but there must be a vitamin or mineral deficiency as well. This happens to me about 3 times a year and it hurts and it's a bit ugly.

  1. Yes, you simply crack dry hands. Cracking dry hands’ just the way thing go

  2. If you wash your hands a lot (like I do), they will dry out. That, and if there is low humidity where you live (like where I live).

    My hands get dry and cracked like that around the knuckles. Just try and use lotion when you can, especially at night when you go to sleep. Also before you go to sleep, put some neosporin on your hands, that will help.
