How can you cure dry / cracked heels?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dry skin treatment.: You can control dry cracked skin on you foot by using otc skin creams or ointments. If this does not work, see your local podiatrist who can prescribe a much stronger cream, ointment, or lotion. Some times the skin has to be debrided or shaved to get rid of the cracking.
