Nutritional Deficiencies: Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals, like iron, or conditions like diabetes and hypothyroidism, can lead to dry skin.
Environmental Factors: Walking barefoot, wearing uncomfortable shoes, or using harsh soaps can impact foot health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prolonged Standing: This can cause the skin on the feet to harden, leading to cracked heels.
Aging: As skin ages, it loses elasticity, becoming thick, dry, and more prone to cracking.
Obesity: Excess weight puts pressure on the heel, potentially leading to cracks if the skin is inflexible.
Symptoms:
Initial symptoms include rough, irregular, dry, and sensitive skin on the heel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
