Throughout the day, the feet are subjected to a lot of stress, sweating, dehydration, heat, uncomfortable shoes and fatigue. This is why it is common to see dry, cracked or even chapped skin on the feet.
First of all, what are the causes of this unsightly problem:
Dehydration of the skin is the main cause of cracked heels. When the skin lacks hydration, it dries out forming a thick plaque to protect itself from aggressions. As a result, the skin can no longer regenerate; Timely treatment can easily cure this discomfort, otherwise the cracks could become painful and itchy.
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies (such as iron), diabetes, and hypothyroidism can also cause dry skin. Other chronic skin conditions, such as psoriasis, can also contribute to dry skin.
Walking barefoot, wearing uncomfortable shoes, or using harsh soaps or products can also be detrimental to the proper functioning of your foot health.
Standing for too long can cause the skin on your feet to harden, which will eventually lead to cracking of your heels. To prevent this from happening, you will need to change your position frequently and wear appropriate shoes.
Aging skin: As you age, your skin loses its elasticity, becomes thick, dry, and scaly, and cracks on your feet can have a greater impact as you age.
Obesity: Heavy weight puts pressure on the layer of fat under your heel. This can cause the pad to stretch, which, if the skin is not flexible, can put pressure on your foot and cause cracks in your heel.
Symptoms:
