Foot Care Advice
How to Care for Cracked Heels at Home
By Pam
Simple daily habits that may help improve comfort between professional foot care appointments.
Cracked heels can feel uncomfortable, especially when walking barefoot or wearing open shoes. While professional cracked heel care can help improve comfort, gentle home care between appointments may also be helpful.
Daily moisturising
Apply a foot cream daily, focusing on the heels. Avoid putting cream between the toes unless advised.
Footwear choices
Supportive footwear with a cushioned heel may help reduce pressure on cracked skin.
When to book an appointment
If cracks are deep, painful, or not improving with routine care, book a foot health appointment for comfort-focused support.
