Cold weather are hard on a person’s skin. Some of the most damaged skin can be found under the main foundation that carries you throughout the day — that being the bottom of your feet.
Treating dry or cracked feet is even more critical if you happen to be
Diabetic. With a possible lessened sense of feel in your lower extremities, unnoticed injury or infection can quickly lead to more severe foot care problems — including surgery and even amputation.
When you have dry feet or cracked feet, bleeding and open sores will be hard to heal due to the constant flexing of the cracks when you walk.
The importance of personal foot care and treating dry feet or cracked feet cannot be over emphasized. Soaking in vinegar or epsom salt can help relieve the soar and pain. Baking soda is also very good. Always apply vaseline or lotion and cover with a sock before going to bed. Remember you can not be a well groomed Fashionista with ugly feet. Rule #1 always take care of yourself- it starts with the basics: Skin, Hair, Nails
