Will proximate hydrochloride help relieve pain in a carpenter's dry cracked finger tips! is that better than something like vaseline, which tends to cause more dryness or should i stick to aloe products? i've tried it all. my fingers hurt always?

You should avoid the activities which exacerbate this condition and use lidocaine ointment 5% as a trial for pain and dry skin.
