    Are you saying that the frets are sticking out the edge of your fretboard? If that is what is happening that just means that due to low humidity your fretboard has shrunk slightly, but the frets don't shrink in length so they stick out. Any decent luthier can file the excess off and polish the fret ends so they won't feel like razors. This problem does not require a re-fret.
