What is Cracked Heels?
Cracked Heels are painful fissures on the heel and are caused by the dryness of the skin. The skin over the heel is very thick due to callus formation and this complicates the condition. Though they are harmless and cosmetically ugly, they can bleed and secondary bacterial infections can also occur. The fissures are painful to stand on. Some people have a tendency for dry skin. The dry skin on the heels is most likely to crack because it bears the weight of the body. Other factors that can be a cause of cracked heels include "prolonged standing at work place or in the kitchen". Being overweight increases the pressure on the normal fat pad under the heel, causing it to expand sideways. If the skin is not supple and it is dry the pressures to 'crack' are high. Skin can become dry and crack in certain medical conditions.
