Hi I was just wondering what people find best for cracked skin - I’ve had this particularly bad this treatment especially on tips of my fingers and toes. I’m using Zerobas and Vaseline at the moment. Thanks
Hi alsopkj. I had chemotherapy with Capecitabine which gave me hand/foot syndrome. People recommended Udder cream which I tried and found not very good . I found Dermalex Repair + Restore from Boots was really good. The skin on my hands and feet were all cracked and peeling and this was the best thing I found.
Love Kim x
Hi Kim, thanks for your reply and I’ll certainly try that cream. I’m on FOLFOX this time after having Capecitabine during my first treatment. Best Wishes Jayne x
