Symptoms of Cracked Feet
Cracks are usually obvious around the heels, but may also be apparent around the balls of the feet. The skin is dry and may have a thick callus which appears as yellow or dark brown discolored area of skin, especially along the inner edge of the heel.

Wearing open or thin-soled shoes usually make the symptoms worse.

If the cracks are severe enough, situations causing extra pressure to be exerted on the heels, such as carrying heavy load, can result in pain. In more extreme cases, the cracked skin can bleed and result in infection.
