Dry and rough skin on top of heel bone

2023-04-12 11:50:43
I observed that rough and dry skin developed on top of the heel bone of my right feet. It does not feel irritating or itchy. The only thing is that it looks bad. Can I apply Xerina cream over that area ? Please let me know.

Hi! It's a callosity developed from sitting cross legged on the floor. You can use xerina but it is too mild. Avoid sitting cross legged. For a detailed prescription, please consult online.
