Throughout the day, feet are subjected to heavy stress, sweat, dehydration, heat, uncomfortable shoes and fatigue, so it is common to see the skin of the feet dry, cracked or even cracked.
First of all, what are the causes of this unsightly problem:
dehydration of the skin is the main cause of cracked heels, when the skin lacks moisture it becomes dry and forms a thick plate to protect against aggression. As a result, the skin can no longer regenerate, a quick treatment can easily cure this ailment, otherwise the cracks can become painful and itchy.
A lack of vitamins and minerals (such as iron), diabetes and hypothyroidism can also cause dry skin. Other chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis can also contribute to skin dehydration.
Walking barefoot, wearing uncomfortable shoes or using soap or a strong product can also affect the proper functioning of foot health.
Standing for long periods of time can cause the skin of the feet to harden, in the long run it leads to cracked heels. To prevent this, you need to change your position frequently while wearing appropriate shoes.
Aging Skin: As we age, the skin loses its elasticity, becomes thick, dry and flaky, and the appearance of cracks in the skin of the feet can have a greater impact as we age.
Obesity: Heavy weight puts pressure on the fat pad under the heel. This can cause the pad to elongate, which, if the skin is not flexible, can put pressure on the foot and expose cracks in the heel.
