If you're interested in more mundane help, vitamin E oil and Aloe will also help a good deal.

I like to put the potato in my pants, make sure it is in the front, not the back.

I just carved out a potato and the fit on my thumb is better than any of my balls. I wonder if the pro shop can make a thumb mold of my potato?
