Good day my husband has 2 cuts under his feet. he is a marathon runner can you please assist. is it something to have checked out or can it be because of running?

Possibly running: If he does not recall cutting his foot on a sharp object, it is likely to be related to running. The foot sole of the foot can become quite calloused, and then will crack or fissure with excess movement. Keeping the skin of the foot lubricated and removing large calluses is important for prevention. New Skin is a liquid bandage that can help with healing. If look infected or bleed, see doctor.
