Having Dry Cracked Heels?

Hi,

Not ATTRACTIVE right?? Having dryness on the foot which seems to go nowhere, no matter how much moisturizer you apply? Then this post is for you!

First thing first. Having permanent dryness around the foot and toes, which looks like skin flaking and no moisturizer helps it then probably you should turn to your doctor and ask for anti- fungal treatment as it is Athlete’s foot.  

And if it is not Athlete’s foot, you simply have dry cracked heels then give the following method a try.

Method

• Dip your foot in warm water and soap solution. Slowly scrub the dead skin off, remove any dust and dirt which may infect the cracked wounds. Add a few drops of an anti-bacterial solution like Dettol or Salvon to the water.
• Pat dry your feet and apply some foot cream and wear cotton socks.
• I suggest doing this before bed time.

Explanation

Dipping feet in water soapy solution with an anti-bacterial solution serves three purposes. Firstly, warm water soothes out pain and ace. Secondly, soap removes the dirt build-up. And thirdly, Anti-bacterial helps to prevent from infection causing germs. Pretty self-explanatory.

Scrubbing removes the dead skin already present.

Foot cream (esp. medicated) helps the cracks to heel quick. And wearing socks ensures that the cream doesn't get rubbed off on the bedsheet, while sleeping.

And doing this at bedtime aids foot to relax and gives ointment time to do its work.
