SURVIVING CRACKED HEELS

Posted on by Skinnami

Any kind of foot pain is not normal. Cracked heels can be very painful and can even cause you to not walk or do any weight bearing on those hurting feet.

Prolonged exposure to harsh elements, such as extreme temperatures, wind, and moisture, can cause dryness, cracking, and irritation, leading to discomfort and potentially even more serious issues.

Does any of this sound familiar?

3 easy tips to help you take care of your winter feet:

Tip 1: Soak and wash your feet in warm water. You can add some Epsom Salts to help relax and soothe your feet.

Tip 2: Once your skin has dried and softened, apply Skinnami’s Body Butter , Body Frosting, or Skinnami’s Soothing Skin Balm to your feet.

Tip 3: *Wear heel socks at night.

You should see improvements within just a few days.

Dry winter air and indoor heating combine to create cracked skin on your feet and heels. Heel fissures, the cracks that develop from severe dry skin, can cause pain and bleed if they become extreme. Deep fissures also allow easy access for fungi and bacterial infections to enter your foot.

Don’t Neglect your feet:

  • Keep your feet clean
  • Moisturize
  • Wear proper socks and footwear
  • Remove wet socks and shoes as soon as possible
