Avon has a great foot cream. Works well for me.

I use a pumice stone on my feet in the shower. It helps alot.

I used to use the pumice stone and the soaking in the tub. It helped some. What helped me most was after the shower rubbing, working it in, Burt's Bees coconut Foot Creme with Vitmain E and then putting cotton socks over them. Sleep with the socks on. Burt's Bees has another Foot Creme too with peppermint but that one seems to be no good.

Mine were that way also when I saw my dr. one time. He said to use a piece of sandpaper. Also the pumice,ect, other suggestion is a good one, which I also do.

MY feet were the same,But also cracked to this worked: Old fashion Vicks Yes VICKS every night in socks and dollar store foot file after you shower as long as 6 wk's + great on your hands to! Hubby worked at Boeing and everyone there had problems with cracking hands used vicks, I had always had fingers that cracked and boy can that hurt!! Haven't for over 2yrs now and soft too!! 8-)

I have one of the ped eggs, and LOVE it! I use it at least once a week in the winter, and follow it up with Gold Bond Ultimate Healing cream (very thick-looks like Crisco). It works so well that dh noticed and started using the ped egg on his own calloused tootsies!

:D

Try the vicks the stuff (menthol,camphor,eucalyptus) in it will stop the crack/bleeds on your feet I know how that hurts!!! Buy it at a dollar store house brand will work fine!! but be diligent. 8-)
