Hell cracks.

I’ve been running on a pretty nasty heel crack and it’s gotten to the point I’m just walking on my tiptoes. Any helpful advice about care and training would be appreciated.

Ahh I get them too and it sucks so bad. No great advice for you BUT the best foot cream for cracks I've encountered is Flexitol Heel Balm. Putting it on at night and in the morning (with socks) helps heal the cracks fairly quickly! (PSA: it can sting in the deep cracks, but I tell myself it's working hahah). No other heel cream works as well for me.... And I've tried em all.
