Hurts on long rides in dirt

I've had Dupuytren's for at least seven years, although didn't notice it until four years ago. Had needle aponeurotomy a year ago on the left hand, pinkie, and now it's back to where it was before. Right hand also has an issue in the right index finger. Both hands have nodules in the palm and they can hurt on long rides in the dirt. Gloves help. Needle treatment is the least invasive, but probably the least effective. Xiaflex injection with needle more effective, but your results will vary and recovery time is a lot longer than needle alone, and more side-effects. Sigh.
