A member asked:
Why does the skin on my feet feel dry and pulled tight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Because your skin could be becoming dry as you age. Sorry. Not uncommon. Depending on how dry your skin would determine what type of lotion you require. The best time to place lotion is after bathing. If not happy with results consult with a podiatrist or dermatologist.
