Since then when out and about, elastic sided boots and in the last few years Slazenger sneakers when golfing.

Googled athletes foot.
Went into town and got an anti fungal cream and a pair of sandals. Geez havent worn sandals for sixty or seventy years.
I will wear the sandals for the next few months and see what happens.
Might try fungal cream on one foot and barrier cream on the other.
Only one crack on each foot and not between the toes like tinea but underneath where the thingy joins onto the foot.
Had swollen feet due to fluid for awhile but Hygroton fixed that, I dont know if there is a connection.
Cracks appeared about the same time as when I started on the fluid tablets.
They were such good feet once apon a time too.

Having your feet cut off at the ankle could be advantageous if your Defender has a Land Rover a/c unit. You'd be able to sit comfortably in the front passengers seat.

Most of this year the skin on the soles of my feet have been peeling ? and quite tender. Also, deep dry cracks have formed underneath the small toe next to the little piggy. whole foot seems to be very dry. Its very painful to walk on.
Do I need to soak the feet in fish oil or a light grade of Penrite or something ?
Could there be something missing from my diet ?
Any ideas ?

Ta.

EULACTOL Heel Balm for rough dry cracked feet. That's what it says on the tube . Available from the chemist. Works for me. .W.

Just above the ankle,,, or neck(?)

The skin in my foots are very sensitive and the way that I keep out of trouble is by doing a bath with warm water and few drops of tea tree oil.
After that I dry the skin and apply organic coconut oil butter (you can get the Melrose brand in Woolworths)
If if have a fungal infection a cream Resolve from Ego is very good. Also they have drops if the fungal infection is under the nails.
I recommend the coconut butter to have it in the first aid box, it is the best product there for skin burns and many skin problems.

A walk along the beach does me wonders. Squelch your feet into the wet sand and have a good old soak in the salt water. The cool water is great for knees and ankles too.

Also a soak in diluted disinfectant ( eg detol ) will help, dry carefully and rub in some Daktarin cream or spray.


Of course a visit to podiatrist if it doesn't clear up
