10 Healthy Ways To Heal Heel Crack From Home

Basic Step:

  • The first step is to exfoliate around the heels to reduce the thickness of the callus - Use a scraper, pumice stone, emery board or heel filing device on your feet to eliminate rough dry skin and reduce the thickness of the heel callus. 
  • Rubbing the scraper surface in soap helps. If your feet are very rough and the callus is hard, soak them in a mixture of warm water and milk for about 30 minutes before showering. 
  • This will often remove many of the surface cracks and make the deeper ones much easier to treat. 
  • Doing this in a minor way every day is a good prevention strategy.
Other Natural Remedies:
Sesame Oil:
  • Massage your heels with sesame oil before going to bed to soften the callus and skin around the heel (wear socks).
RoseWater:
  • Mix rosewater with a little glycerin apply to the heels daily. This soothes and repairs cracked heels.
AloeVera:
  • Apply aloe vera gel to cracked heels after soaking for 15 minutes in lukewarm water may help
Lemon Juice:
  • Take a bowl of water, add the juice of one lemon and soak your feet and then rub with pumice stone and soap.
Coconut Oil:
  • Coconut Oil is one of the healthiest oils available.
  • Massage your feet with coconut oil every night.
Apple Cider Vinegar:
  • Mix equal volumes of apple cider vinegar and olive oil and store in a glass jar. 
  • Rub into your feet each night and wear socks to keep the solution working.
Lemon-Papaya Mix:
  • Mix lemon juice and papaya and apply it on the cracked heels for 20 minutes and wash off.
Banana:
  • Take a very ripe banana. Mash it, and apply to the affected areas and leave it on for about 15 minutes.
Glycerine:
  • Glycerine is a natural moisturiser that hastens the repair of cracked heels. 
  • Mix one part glycerine, two parts of rose water, one part lemon juice and rub into the heels.
Note:
To soften your feet prior to scraping soak your feet in warm salty water.
