My 10 yr old DD has started to get blister on her finger tip from pitching. Any help on prevention or healing?

Can she change her grip, just slightly? Can you describe her grip? Is is a common 4 seam grip? She could change to a 2 seam grip, maybe. Also, she wants a looser grip. So, check for the "death grip."

How many times can I say grip in a short paragraph? :)

Made it a new drinking game, I took a drink for every "grip"!!! :eek:. J/K.

I hate that darn death grip.
 
Don't laugh...And it probably wont help after she has the blister, but soaking her finger tips in vinegar for 20-30 minutes everyday for a month or so will toughen the skin up and help prevent future occurrences. If you can get her to do it.
