Share
Cracked heels are a very common problem and can range in severity from a cosmetic issue to a painful problem.
More a sign of negligence to foot care, rather than overexposure or drying out, cracked heels are regular linear cut wounds. At times, the cuts may be deep and become painful.
Cracked and bleeding heels may also indicate zinc and omega-3 fatty acid deficiency.

Cracks in the heels are generally caused by insufficient moisture. It may become sore and may even bleed.

- Cold winter weather;
- Dehydration, or not drinking enough water;

- Taking very hot baths or showers;
- Soaking in a hot bath for too long or too frequently;
- Using harsh, drying soaps on one’s feet

How To Manage Cracked Heels

If your heels are already bleeding use the Silverlab Healing Gel for 2 days and then change over to the healing cream otherwise just use the Cream.
You may also get yourself a TITANIA (made in Germany) VE 24 Double Foot File and perhaps even a TITANIA foot scraper from your local pharmacy or Spar.
