Dry and cracked hands and feet are a very common phenomenon in life, especially in the autumn and winter seasons. Dry and cracked feet will affect our normal walking and cause us trouble. So what are the causes of dry and cracked feet? How to treat it? 1. Internal factors In autumn, the secretion of subcutaneous sweat glands in the human body decreases and blood circulation is poor; aging causes poor skin elasticity, increased dead cells, and decreased new cells; and hormone metabolism disorders, such as decreased estrogen secretion. These factors cause the body's skin to become dry, rough, and cracked. 2. External environment The skin on the body that is prone to cracking is mostly caused by long-term exposure to the air, such as hands, feet, face, etc. A series of external factors such as dry external environment, low air humidity, mechanical friction, trauma, acid and alkali corrosion, and organic irritation damage the skin's protective layer, causing roughness and cracking. 3. Disease factors Some diseases can easily hinder a person's absorption of vitamins, cause thickening of the stratum corneum, local dehydration of the skin, and limit the protection of the skin by sebum, leading to roughness, fine lines, and cracking. Common liver diseases can cause vitamin A deficiency in the body and lead to dry skin. Diseases such as tinea manuum and athlete's foot can also cause similar phenomena.
