[pct-l] Minor aches and pains

[Jim & Jane Moody]

I heard this recently. Getting old is like frying bacon in the nude. You know it's gonna hurt, you just don't know where.

David, I am a 74 year old hiker. I "religiously" use lotion on hands and feet while hiking. For the nose Ayre saline nasal gel helps a lot. A little dab "ll do ya. hate finger splits and nose splits. Nose especially is likely to be staph once it splits. Once fingers or thumbs split it usually takes time with antibiotic cream under cover of band aids to heal. 

This year I got a small stress fx of metatarsal bone (foot) on last day of 300 mile hike. 

Nice to brag about being an aging hiker but age does take its toll.
