A member asked:

How can i get rid of dry dead feet skin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

First, find out why: Your feet are not smooth and soft. Are they dry. Is there peeling or cracking? Treatment will depend on this. May be as simple as a moisterizing cream or may need a prescription.

A member asked:

How can I heal my cracked heels? I am unable to walk now. It begins to heal, then re-cracks & bleeds. My feet get moisturized daily. Get pedicures to prevent dry skin. Its highly painful.
