Okay in my quest for a decent lotion for dried skin (A common thing in diabetics) I have experienced many a product: "Choice" diabetic care lotion, "Shea it isn't so" foot lotion, the various jergens, "Diabetiderm", you name it. I have recently found one for diabetic use called "DiabetAid" which is VERY nice. However I was directed to one other that I swear by now. "Udderly Smooth" Udder Cream. Yes, you read right. Udder cream. Sarah dear, you might try it. The Shea it isn't so was good but this stuff rocks. I share with you now the directions so everyone knows what they need to do.
Wash udder and teat parts thoroughly with clean water and soap before each milking to avoid contamination of milk. Use clean individual towels for this purpose. Apply to the udder after each milking, massaging into the skin. For teat cracks apply in sufficient quantity to fill crack and cover surrounding area. Apply uniformly to chafed area and bruises to maintain skin suppleness.
For aid in softening swollen udders following calving, apply liberally twice daily with gentle massage.
There you have it. I know all of you were concerned with cracked teats and chafed udders. Now you can rest easy!
