Door Handles Stick

Hello, I have a 2008 RDX & just recently have been having both rear door handles starting to stick when opening the doors. I just wanted to know if there was a special lubricant or grease (white lithium grease or silicone?) used specifically for the door handles? Do you normally lubricate the inside of the door handles like the door hinges?

When I pull on them to open the door, they wont return to the closed position...

any help would be greatly appreciated....

Thanks Again

WD-40? But, be sure to clean/wipe off any residue that may get on paint quickly.

nobody has any fixes for this issue?
it looks like something is rubbing on the door handle to cause it to stick open a little. 3 out of my 4doors is doing this.
i'll try to investigate when it gets warmer and try to get back to everyone. i hope the door panels dont' have to come off to fix this
