Jack's hands get really bad in the winter, cracking and bleeding. He uses Aveeno cream almost exclusively. Or how about some Bag Balm? Hope you can soften up those tootsies Ellise, not very comfy at all.

Thanks Deed, I have bought so much that I don't even know what all I have! LOL Don thought maybe it was / is Athelete foot? But mine don't burn, they just itch (at times) and are cracked.

Ellise, I went to the dr. just a couple weeks ago for athlete's foot. Mine itched until I thought I'd go nuts. Also my toe nails have gotten very thick. I waited way too long to go to the Dr. but she prescribed a creame for it . I have been using it for several days now and I can already tell a difference. My feet, too were dry and cracked. Don't wait too long to go to the dr. A simple creame was all that was needed for treatment of mine and it has helped immensely.

Ellise...
Before you spend money for a doctor's visit, go to the store and pick up some Eucerin. DD uses it and gave me some to try on my dry elbows. It works wonders so I am sure it would work on your feet.
Also, Bath and Body makes a foot cream with shea butter in it..It is good also.
Good luck smoothing out those tootsies..

My heels get dry and cracked. I go barefoot a lot and my feet are "tuff".
I've been using an over the counter cream..Lamisil AT....Seems to be pretty good.

Thanks Tammy & Car. I have the stuff from Bath & Body works, but I don't like the smell of it. Lamisil AT is for athletes foot right?
