Can a Vitamin Deficiency Cause Cracked Heels ?

• Dry skin is the most common cause of cracked heels. 
• The impact and friction between layers of tissue when walking can cause cracking.
• When the feet spend time in water for prolonged periods of time, the strength of the skin is affected.
• Sweating can lead to painful cracked heels.
• Spending a lot of time standing on hard surfaces (especially barefoot) is another cause of cracked heels especially when overweight or obese.
• Calluses and corns can lead to the development of cracked heels.
• Certain conditions that cause the skin to dry can also lead to cracked heels.  These conditions include thyroid, eczema and psoriasis.
• Dehydration is another cause of cracked heels.  Of course every aspect of our bodies including the skin need water to work properly.
• Obesity increases the pressure on the normal fat pad beneath the heel, causing it to expand sideways and crack.
• Lack of moisturization of the feet is yet another cause.
• Skin type is often genetic meaning that there is a risk you will develop cracked heels if it runs in the family.
• Shoes that rub or are loose can also cause cracked heels to develop.
• Of course, aging skin will lose elasticity, start to flake, become very dry and may lead to cracked heels.
• If you are taking prescription medications, there can be side effects that dry the skin, making it crack.

You can successfully treat cracked heels

Do not neglect cracked heels because they can turn into serious medical issues later. If you have itchy, flaky or patchy heels, start to treat the condition as soon as possible. 

Try soaking the feet in warm water for roughly twenty minutes at night, followed by applying  plenty of natural moisturizers before putting on cotton socks for the rest of the night. From time to time, use a pumice stone carefully to reduce any thickness of the hard skin in the heel area as this can decrease the risk of the hard skin cracking and splitting.

Also, try to avoid walking barefoot or wearing sandals or flip flops until your feet are 100% healthy. Even when your feet do heal, always remember to keep them well hydrated, especially in the heel area. Treat yourself to a moisturizing and soothing foot massage as this will also help immensely with the healing process.
