Toddler Cuticles

DS's cuticles seem to constantly be shredding, and it is starting to bother him. When he eats anything juicy, he fusses that he has "mash a finger" b/c it stings his fingers. I have tried putting Waxelene on them, but that doesn't seem to be helping. Any other ideas of what to use that will help them heal?

Rub a little vitamin E on them, maybe?

What if you put coconut oil on them before he eats?  Maybe it would help protect them a little?

Both good ideas! I need to get some vitamin E, but in the meantime I'll fix a small container of coconut oil to keep near the table so maybe I will remember!
