Bad feet!
DH has really bad feet. They're so dry they cracked. I told him I always put Vaseline on my feet at night then put on slipper socks. Helps me, but his are really bad. He's a contractor so always on his feet in work boots.
Anything stronger that can help him?

Bad feet!
I would have him use an exfoliating body scrub (DH like origins ginger soufflé) on his feet then moisturizer. If the skin is very think cracked and peeling it could be athletes foot. My DH also wears boots to work and this has happen several times. He has no discomfort but the skin gets very damaged.

Re: Bad feet!
Sounds like athlete's foot. He will need to treat it to get rid of it and to heal the cracking. After that is gone, he can do the aquaphor-and-socks at night.
DH had it. Real bad. Fungus too. I wore socks to bed, that's how bad.

Re: Bad feet!
Def coconut oil. U can also wrap his feet after u apply any balm or oil with plastic wrap to keep moisture in. He has to be consistent.
