Dry cracked heels are not caused by kidney yin deficiency.
Cracked heels belong to chapped hands and feet, mostly caused by too dry skin, excessive keratinization of the skin, the cause of the disease has nothing to do with kidney yin deficiency.
Symptoms of kidney yin deficiency include dizziness, tinnitus, hot flashes and night sweats (sweating abnormally after going to sleep and stopping after waking up), insomnia, weak knees and lower back, red tongue with little fluids, and heat in the heart (heat in the hearts of the hands and feet, and self-consciousness of heat in the heart and chest), etc. Women may also experience menstrual cramps, and may have a high level of menstrual cramps.
Women may also experience low menstrual flow or even amenorrhea, but they will not experience the symptoms of cracked heels.
This shows that dry cracked heels are not caused by kidney yin deficiency. Patients should seek medical advice and use moisturizers, keratin softeners and other medications as prescribed by the doctor. Usually, you should also use warm water to soak your feet, keep your feet moist; wear loose shoes and socks to keep your feet comfortable and breathable.
If the heel is dry and cracked for a long time, it is recommended that the patient go to a regular hospital and receive standardized treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
