Home > Foot CareFor Badly Calloused
At some point, heels got so badly cracked, they would catch on the carpet, and no mere moisturizing helped. If you've tried EVERYTHING to mend calloused, painfully cracked heels and nothing worked, look for CALLEX OINTMENT.
You can purchase it on the internet - I have not seen it in any stores, and yes, it is a bit pricey at $25.00 for 1.75 oz! But it contains endoprotease enzyme, something that actually "eats" the calloused surface. Soak your feet at night, scrub them with a pumice, then apply the ointment, put on light cotton socks and go to sleep. Shower in the morning and moisturize lightly your feet. Do this every day until you see results --in about a week--and YOU WILL see results. When the major damage has healed, continue moisturizing your feet on regular basis and the probelm should not re-occur. I have, howver, been cautioned by a dermatologist friend not to remove the 'hard heel padding" entirely, as some is necessary in order to protect and cushion the heel, so use your judgement.
