No change in diet/exercise, but have accumulated multiple cuts - including deep cuts - on hands that have not healed (whether due to nutrient deficiencies or stretching of skin from all the handwashing). As natural healing will not occur without action, what are some measures I can take and specific products (moisturizers are not enough) I can apply to expedite this healing process? I developed Pavlovian symptoms to refrain from moving hands beyond neutral position for pain/damage prevention 😭

If you think or know you have nutrient deficiencies, why aren’t you correcting that?

It could likely be from all of the hand washing, but who knows. Maybe try a good water resistant bandaid/barrier for the deep cuts so they are allowed to heal without constant agitation? Other than that apply/reapply Neosporin or some healing ointment after every washing, or slather a generous layer of Neosporin so cuts aren’t open and exposed. Airing out is what is suggested, but it may not be helping in this situation because you clean your hands often. It might just be time to go see your doc if you’re limiting hand movement to prevent further damage/pain.

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide
