Women Rip

[wsg13]

I have a rip that's quite large on my hand. problem is as soon as it fixes it is re ripping. Done this about 3 times. It's the only rip I have on my hands. And yes I wear grips. Any suggestions?

Keep it hydrated with neosporine or similar product and bandaids when you're not a practice. And then tape it when you're on bars. Tape grips are good for covering palm rips.

I usually put vitamin E oil on the rip & sleep with a sock on my hand to keep the oil from getting on anything. I use Band Aid Advanced Healing (or something like that) bandaids when I'm not at practice. For practice, I use new skin liquid bandaid (yes it burns! But it'll stay put) & tape grips.

All of the above, an maybe try putting a tape grip on under your grip for a few days. It might offer some protection from the friction between grip and hand, and help pad the hand just a wee bit.
Feel better soon!

When we deal with rips here, we put a split piece of Aloe on at night. Seems to help speed healing.

My daughters coaches swear by plain chapstick for healing rips.

My DD's coach suggested Preparation H. Sounds crazy, but it worked really well, dried up overnight.
