When you suffer from eczema,  psoriasis, and other conditions, your skin cracks, thus presenting you
with painful slits or fissures. They cause discomfort even while doing simple movements. Your skin cracks and it can give you terrible pain. The hands and feet are the most vulnerable spots for this problem.  Usually, the areas between the toes and on the heels are affected. These fissures, if neglected, can cause infection.

Treatment for the cracked skin:

Soak yourself: The best treatment for dry skin is to have a good bath every
night before going to sleep. This enables your skin cells to absorb water since
these cells are like sponges. You can also soak the affected body part for about
20 minutes in warm water and then pat dry. Epsom salt and essential oils are
also great aids.

Apply a moisturizer: It’s no secret that cracked skin is dry, so the best way to
combat it is by keeping it hydrated.

Stick the cracks: You can either get a pedicure professionally done or have an
at-home spa night! This will actually scrub off the dead skin from your feet.

Your quality of life is directly related to your ability to perform activities of daily living such as walking, shopping, visiting friends and family, working, and playing. If your feet hurt or you have other foot problems, you are unlikely to function at your best.
