Cracked Heels that haven't Heeled 👠👠 for over a  year is punny if intended. 🎵 you have tried multiple creams that haven't helped Perhaps a more detailed personal and medical history is required in that case to help you further. One Dermatologist has suggested a steroid and another an urea based cream and both have got "likes" I think one is just grasping at straws here as not one cream will fix all heels!! Even Achilles had an issue ;-)
Next Steps
Online Consultation or if in Bangalore, welcome to the clinic where we have a pharmacy formulary that customises creams and lotions
Health Tips
Wear cotton 🧦 socks or insoles instead of direct contact with footwear 👟👟 Xerigo cream applied 🆘 in the winters (an OTC moisturizer) will help to an extent.
