HOW TO TREAT
HARD SKIN &
CRACKED HEELS

Cracked heels, or heel fissures, are splits in the skin around the heel. When pressure is put onto the heel from our bodyweight while walking and standing, the skin needs to stretch and spread out a little. If the heel cannot stretch because the skin is dry and inflexible, it may split.
Hard skin can form on the top and outer edges of toes, on the ball of the foot and the back of the heel and are caused by on-going stress and pressure on the foot. Physically removing thick hard skin is a common approach to treating it, files are ideal for this and protective plasters are effective in relieving discomfort.
