Hi.Preparations like Vaseline and Boroplus are over the counter and not suitable for cracked/fissured feet.Start applying Cotaryl cream locally twice daily and Halovate S ointment locally once daily as well for 7 days.Immerse your feet in lukewarm water with a pinch of salt for 5-7 mins everyday and Wear cotton socks.
