Monica_ Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 HiI would like some advice please. With me wearing thongs day and night, I have noticed that my feet are really taking a lot of punishment. I’m sure the dry air, is a contributing factor as well, but could anyone please help me with advice, product name or some home remedies. I use normal Vaseline cream, and Campher cream if I get to the South African shop, and have looked around at Coles and Woolworths, but haven’t come across anything specifically for feet.Gee, never thought I would be dicussing my feet on the internet.....Monica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Neutrogena Foot Cream and find it very good also availabe at the pharmacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mara Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Hi Monica, I have used Eulactol Heel Balm for many years, it is absolutely excellent. I then saw a doctor who told me to stop wearing sandles that did not have a heel covering, so these days I do not really have a problem any longer. In the days that my heels would crack, sometimes till they bled, I would, at night, put on the heel balm pretty thick, then wrap my heels in plastic with a bandage over it to keep the plastic in place. I would try to kee this on for 24 hours and hey presto, more often than not the crack would be gone. Do try it, it definitely works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
