I Have A Sore Finger! The Skin On My Index Finger Was Dry And Split And Now It Hurts When I Type!

Any suggestions?  It's really annoying makes typing difficult and I definitely cannot type with a band-aid on my finger.  I'm one of those finicky MTs who takes forever to find a comfortable height of my chair, distance from the keyboard, height of my monitor, etc.  And absolutely nothing on my wrists and hands!  No rings, watches, bracelets, band-aids! I was considering putting super glue in the split, but then chickened out. ...

Sorry you were not as lucky. Best of luck to you (and the rest of us). ...
