protecting cuticles while wrestling?
Hi! My cuticles have begun to tear out from jujitsu fighting. I’ve been told by a dermatologist I spar with that if the top of the cuticles tears out, my nails may not grow back properly. I think they’re tearing out from rubbing against the rigid uniforms we use, but it may be from grabbing and squeezing the uniforms so hard. I tried sports tape with minimal results. Friends have recommended using Aquaphor or getting a manicure to reduce the contact area. Any suggestions? -Thanks!
Aquaphor is a good thing to use for dry skin and since cuticles are skin, they are more prone to injury when they are dry. It’s not a good idea to cut cuticles because of the risk of infection, so don’t try to do that yourself. Some people recommend soaking your cuticles in warm olive oil to keep them soft and supple, but you need to experiment to find what works best for you. Keeping your cuticles well lubricated will keep them soft and make them less likely to tear. Good luck!

How to deal with a girlfriend always around guys?
My girlfriend and I just got back together. Her grappling guys is still bothering me. Last week when i went to pick her up some guy’s face was in her crotch. Than he was rolling around with her. His hands were everywhere. I was ready to punch the guy out. We ended up fighting about it after, she won’t quit . I cannot give her up, I tried what can i do?
Additional details
This is her sport, she does Jujitsu and Judo.
She has never cheated on me ever.
Relax. You’re overreacting. Just because she’s wrestling with a guy in Jujistu class doesn’t mean that she’ll be ripping off his clothes in the bathroom. You’re worried about losing her, but she’s never cheated. Besides, your paranoia is leading you down a path that will render you single very soon.
