How to treat cracked heel with home and natural remedy

Hello everyone, I welcome you all to the month of November & this month shall bring us all a testimony that sounds like a lie .(amen)
 Today I will be talking on how to treat cracked heel, you see some people with this and you wonder what is going on. Cracked heels sometimes be called fissures, cracked heel looks very unpleasant and do you know this can be very painful,am sure some of you don't know this.it usually starts with white folds around the back of the heels,most especially when the area is very dry & when is left untreated then the cracks begin to split open and becomes gaping crevices that bleed.when it gets to this stage it becomes very painful and uncomfortable,as the skin edges are pulled apart by the increased tension on the skin & it could get infected if not treated .
    You could prevent having cracked heels by reducing putting on flip flops and backless shoes often, it doesn't mean you can't put them on, but reduce putting it on all the time.

      Things you can use
  1: Lemons
  2:Vegetable oil
   3:Epsom salt
