Can I use this cream on cracked heels?

Medikomed Heel Cream is designed for dry, rough and thickened skin on the heels and soles — the kind of dryness that often leads to cracking. If you already have cracked or damaged skin, the source guidance is to introduce the product gently and observe how the area responds. That means applying a small amount at first rather than a thick layer.

At the same time, this cream is a cosmetic. It moisturizes and softens, but it will not close cracked skin by itself. Cracks that are deep, bleeding, red, warm, weeping or painful are beyond what a cosmetic can address. In that situation, the responsible step is to consult a doctor or pharmacist before choosing a foot-care product. The same applies if you have diabetes, circulation problems or other chronic conditions affecting the feet, or if you are unsure whether the damage is infected.

For minor surface dryness, this cream can be part of a daily routine: apply to clean, slightly damp skin and keep using it consistently. If the skin shows any sign of irritation or allergic reaction after application, stop using it. The product should not be applied to the eye area and is for external use only.

One way to think about it: this cream supports the skin's moisture balance and comfort, but it does not replace professional care when the skin barrier is already broken or when there are signs of infection.
