Answer a walking and hiking question

Got an answer to the following Walking/Hiking question?

Trekking Poles that are too tight

I read the thread about poles you can't tighten - but what about those you can't loosen? Both the joints on mine are becoming really tight. I have heard that you shouldn't lubricate them, as this can make them prone to slipping in use. Is this right? If so, what alternatives are there?
