The Ballad of the Cracked Heels

 

(Verse 1)

I am the ballad of the cracked heels,

A tale of woe and despair.

My heels are dry and cracked and bleeding,

A painful reminder of my neglect.

 

(Chorus)

Cracked heels, cracked heels,

Why do you torment me so?

I try to keep you moisturized,

But you just keep getting worse.

 

(Verse 2)

I've tried everything to heal you,

But nothing seems to work.

I've used expensive creams and lotions,

I've soaked my feet in epsom salt,

I've even tried duct tape.

 

(Chorus)

Cracked heels, cracked heels,

Why do you torment me so?

I try to keep you moisturized,

But you just keep getting worse.

 

(Bridge)

I'm starting to lose hope,

I don't know what else to do.

I'm afraid that my cracked heels will never heal,

And I'll be stuck with them for the rest of my life.

 

(Chorus)

Cracked heels, cracked heels,

Why do you torment me so?

I try to keep you moisturized,

But you just keep getting worse.

 

(Outro)

I'm the ballad of the cracked heels,

A tale of woe and despair.

My heels are dry and cracked and bleeding,

A painful reminder of my neglect.

 

But I will not give up hope,

I will keep trying to heal my cracked heels.

One day, I know I will find a way to make them better,

And I will sing the song of the healed heels.

 

Tips for Avoiding and Healing Cracked Heels

 

If you're struggling with cracked heels, there are a few things you can do to avoid them and promote healing.

 

Limit your exposure to hot water. Hot water can dry out your skin, so it's best to limit your baths and showers to 5-10 minutes.

Use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser. Harsh cleansers can also dry out your skin, so it's best to use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser.

Moisturize immediately after bathing. Apply a thick layer of moisturizer to your heels immediately after bathing while your skin is still damp.

Apply petroleum jelly before bed. Petroleum jelly is a great occlusive moisturizer that can help to lock in moisture overnight.

Protect your heels. Wear socks and shoes that protect your heels from rubbing against rough surfaces.

See a doctor if your cracked heels are severe or don't improve with home treatment. There may be an underlying medical condition that is causing your cracked heels.

With a little care and attention, you can heal your cracked heels and enjoy smooth, soft skin again
