Ankle Tips - Do your heels start cracking as soon as winter arrives? Try these home remedies.

Friends, everyone enjoys the winter season that follows the rainy season, offering freedom to eat, drink, roam, and wear whatever they want. However, this season also brings many health and skin-related problems. One such problem is cracked heels. Dry air, low humidity, and neglect of foot care can cause painful, rough, and unsightly heels. But don't worry; you can find relief with some home remedies. Let's learn about them:

Moisturize regularly

Apply a thick moisturizer to your feet at least three times a day.

Pay special attention to your heels and dry areas.

Natural alternatives

If you don't have access to a store-bought moisturizer, ghee (clarified butter) is an excellent natural alternative for deep hydration.

3. Use coconut oil at night

Massage coconut oil on your feet before bed.

Wear soft socks overnight to retain moisture.

4. Soak your feet

Soak your feet in lukewarm water for 10-15 minutes to soften the skin.

5. Gently exfoliate

After soaking, use a foot file or pumice stone to remove dead skin.

This helps make your heels shiny and soft.

6. Wear the right socks

Choose cotton or wool socks that help retain moisture.

Avoid synthetic materials that can dry out the skin.

7. Choose comfortable shoes

Wear loose-fitting shoes to reduce pressure and friction on your heels.
