What is the cause of cracked feet

Cracked feet are considered to be possibly chafing eczema and tinea pedis, as follows: 1. Chafing eczema: it is mainly caused by thick keratin layer and low sebum secretion in the feet, and is more common especially in the elderly. Patients can take oral orotadine hydrochloride tablets, compound glycopyrrolate capsules, and also topical dimethylsilicone ointment mixed with fluticasone propionate ointment with Shuvrin, 2 times/day. During the treatment period, cotton socks and loose, breathable shoes need to be worn, and the excess keratin can usually be rubbed off after foot soaking; 2. Tinea pedis caused by fungal infection: antifungal treatment with terbinafine hydrochloride gel is mainly applied.
