What should I do about dry, cracked skin on the heels?

1. Soak your feet in warm water for 15–20 minutes daily to soften the skin, which helps remove dead skin cells and relieve dryness and cracking. 2. Keep the skin on your heels well moisturized by using a moisturizing cream containing urea or glycerin, and avoid harsh or irritating cleansers. 3. Wear breathable, soft-material socks and shoes to reduce friction and pressure, helping protect the skin on your feet. 4. For severe cracking, use topical keratolytic agents such as ammonium lactate lotion. Maintain a balanced diet with adequate intake of vitamins A and E. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice promptly to rule out underlying conditions.
