If you’ve typically had normal skin on your feet and have been noticing them becoming increasingly dry. You’re likely dealing with a case of xerosis. The condition medically known as xerosis is also better known as severe dry skin on the feet. There is really no medication needed to treat the condition
There are several factors that can cause xerosis such as:
- Bathing or showering habitually more than once a day
- Using non-moisturizing soaps
- Not applying lotion to re-moisturize the area
- Using excessively hot water when showering or bathing
By applying a moisture-rich lotion to the area, you should be able to see results fairly quickly. In many cases the dry skin is severe and can lead to thickening and cracking. For persistent cases Specialized Foot Care products are necessary to keep the condition under control. The average hand or face cream will not provide results.Severe dry and cracking skin of the feet and heels can be effectively treated with the right product.
If you notice the dryness escalating and the skin becomes itchy and scaly, it has progressed to prurtius. Again, this condition is easily treated by re-moisturizing the area with lotion. However, if the condition persists for more than two weeks, this could indicate the presence of an infection . In this case, you would want to visit your podiatrist for an evaluation.
