3 Effective Ways To Cure Cracked Heels
1.Soak your heels in lukewarm water and use a pumice-stone to scrub off dead skin to smooth the heels or use a foot scrub after soaking the feet in lukewarm water. Apply a deep moisturizing lotion or Vaseline and put on the socks to cover it for sometime. This method will protect the feet from excessive dryness.
2. You could also heat up some Coconut oil, add some wax into it and after cooling apply it onto your heels.
3. Another solution is to melt paraffin wax and mix it well with little mustard oil. Apply on the affected area of your heels. Wash it off in the morning. Do this for 10 or 15 days and see the difference.

U need to clean the area after dipping your leg in warm water for a period of half an hour. its a good idea to use a brush to work away the dirt sticking in there. After wiping and cleaning the area apply the oil of cashew kernel. This is mae by heating up the cashew on a heated sand in a pan. It can burn the skin. So use gloves. Oh I forgot.mix the cahewkernel oil with honey befor applying. If u find this teious process, use amruth malam. wear a pair of socks or stockings all day long.
Hope ur trouble gets over fast.

Get yourself a pair of 100% cotton socks (sockets) just for that purpose at the local drug store... a good cream (foot creams don't cost that much! or any kind of cream would do too!) Every night before bed, soak and wash your feet real good, making sure to dry them especially between the toes when you're done... Put your cream on (generously) and slip on the cotton socks and into bed... You'll have feet like a baby's butt in no time at all! Take care of those feet always as they have quite a load to carry daily... so you take care of them and they'll take care of you!!!
Another super important thing that you don't think about is that in order for your skin (which is the largest organ your body has) to be healthy and young, it needs water, fresh water, and nothing else will do... please remember to drink at least 8 glasses a day from now on... it helps so many things that we really do ourselves a disfavour by denying our bodies of it!

First of all you must never walk bare feet. It will aggravate its conditions.. One solution is to rub your heels well with olive oil or mustard oil.. then soak them in a basin of warm water or water as hot as you may resist.. the heat will help the oil to get absorbed. after a while take them out .. dry well with a rough towel.. Apply a rich cream or moisturiser, you may find one in beauty shops.. You may then wear a pair of socks to activate the process.. Do this every night..
You will get smooth heels soon if you have patience dear..

Aveeno lotion for dry skin really works well. Or after you take a bath/ shower at night oil your feet ( pay close attention to your heels) with vaseline and put socks on. Sleep with the socks on, continue this for a couple days and that should work. Good luck!!

I don't have cracked heels, but here's what I found on the topic:
it's excessively dry skin, and you need to soak them and put some stuff on it. Here's a detailed description of what to do about it:

There are lots but the best is after shower or after feet wash wipe off your heels with rough towel. Apply oil.
Weekly scrap your heels & keep them oily.
they are nothing but sead dermal layers. which shades off regularly. it is less in oily skin & leat in skin which is not exposed to the water for longer time & not soft skin too.
