Sore hands

It's about this time of year that my hands begin to feel sore, although we haven't really had much in the way of wind and rain. My fingers are very sore around the nail bed, and my joints are sore from doing quite a few massages. I always think that the oil should make everything better, but it doesn't seem to. I find my hands embarrassing - I'd love for them to be soft and smooth and tidy.
