Cracked heels are a very common foot problem and can range from mild dryness to painful deep cracks in the skin. For many people, cracked heels develop gradually when dry skin builds up on the heel and eventually splits under pressure when walking or standing.

While fungal toenails are not usually serious, many people are bothered by the thickening, discolouration and crumbling they can cause. Some people also experience discomfort, pressure in shoes or embarrassment about the appearance of their nails.
