Apply some Vicks onto your heels and the sole of your feet. After that, put on a pair of warm socks. Do this overnight and wash your feet with warm water in the morning. You can also use a pumice stone to exfoliate the dead soft layer of skin off of your cracked heels. Do this every night to keep your feet healthy and smooth.

Vicks has a fungus-fighting ingredient called thymol. So, simply apply the Vicks ointment directly onto your fingernails or toenails twice daily to treat fungus infections that you are dealing with. Cover your feet with socks at bedtime, and don’t forget to trim the nails until the infected part is removed.
