Over the weekend, my thumb tips started hurting like crazy. I trimed my fingernails all the way down and trimmed off some dry flaky skin. One thumb was orangy skin, but I trimmed that off. Now today I caught the left thumb nail on something and ripped part of it down to the nail bed. OUCH! What can I do to help my poor sore thumb out? (I've bandaged it already...just don't know what else to do to speed healing, especially since it's the same thumb as the orange skin was on.)

Keep it clean, and Vitamin E.
