What should I use if the skin on my heels are cracked?

If you find your heels are dry and flaky and cracking, then our doctors recommend you use a topical cream containing urea. Urea is a keratolytic, which gently breaks down hardened skin and its absorption allows softening of the skin. Our office recommends urea 20% to start out with, then your doctor may recommend the stronger 40% depending on your condition.
