By Cory SerVaas, M.D.
Published: September/October 2004

Dear Dr. SerVaas: In your column, people were trying to find solutions to dry, cracking fingers.I use the following remedy and have told many friends who agree it is the easiest, cheapest treatment in the world.

Buy a bottle of the cheapest strawberry shampoo. Use it full strength on the cracked fingers. It can also be used as a liquid hand soap--it works!
