Cracked feet with pain

I am suffering from severe cracked feet since the last 6 months now.It started with normal cracking of the feet and then aggravated to a very painful situation.The skin below the feet has got cracked with deep wounds and dry & hard scales depositing on the surface which is looking ugly as well as paining a lot too.Sometimes out of frustration I tried pulling out the dried out scales from the non-paining regions but very soon another such hard & dry skin surface out on the same place.
One doctor suggested me to wash the feet with lukewarm water and after cleaning apply a cream which did not give satisfactory result.
Every time I was the feet, the surface below the feet becomes white with scales showing up and when it dries it becomes hard.Some people also suggested me to show a skin specialist as they think it is a type of eczema.
I am not able to get cured out of this.Plz suggest if anyone knows any remedy.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Try hepar.sulph 200c twice daily for a week and report.

Thank you for the advise.Can you plz confirm if there is any chance of aggravation of the present condition after taking homeopathic medicine.I am asking this because I heard homeopathic ,in many cases first aggravates the condition and them cures.I work in a telecom company where it is very difficult to get leave.So please advise.

Sometimes homeo medicies do aggravate provided we hit the bull's eye in the remedy selection and then repeat in excess.

Even in such cases discontinuing the medicine on the first signs of aggravation is enough to restore the balance.

With the limited information (about the case) we get on these forums it is unlikely that the medicine prescribed is going to be the similimum.

So keep observing and even if you have the slightest doubt that the medicine is aggravating, stop taking it and report here.

In any case don't take for more than a week, and report the condition after a week.

And Arnica also works if the whold skin is dry, but it takes half year to know the results for sure.

After seeing the response I intend to put her on a split dose.

Though Petroleum is generally thought for cracks, it is more useful for cracks of palms and fingers. The deep painful nature of these foot cracks hopefully will respond to Hepar. sulph, as sensitiveness to pain is the leading symptom in Hepar and it is one of the very few medicines indicated in the repertories for cracks in feet.

Ok, in that case I will try hepar suph200c.But plz confirm the dose as to number of globules or drops.Whether it is for application or consuming?
Thank you

4 globules/ one drop in about 30 ml. of water at a time is the dose.

Better to get the liquid medicine and increase the mixing time progressively from one dose to the other.

Use disposable plastic/paper cups and spoons and don't use them for anything else.

The medicine is for internal consumption. Don't apply anything on the cracks externally.

I am sorry to reconfirm once again as I forgot to mention few points,which occurred to me after going through the other topics.I am normally a fun loving person,but off late for about a year I keep depressed most of the time due to incompatibility with my husband.Otherwise I try to be happy with my 2 year old daughter and my job.Now I am just bothered if Hepar sulph 200c can affect me mentally in any way.This is because I try hard to keep my head cool and carry on with life without any mental disturbance.

go ahead with the medicine as suggested.
