My heel is cut?!


Question:

My heel is cut?

I had peeling skin on my right heel that started to bleed. It now hurts when it is rubbed on anything and when I walk on it. I can't walk really without a limp or wear any shoes because It hurts to much to press down on it. It has basically formed into a cut and I don't know what to do. Should I not walk on it because I have thought about using my crutches that I have around my house to make it easier for me. What can I do to help it and should I use the crutches. I'd really also like it to heal.

My heel also pounds after I walk on it and it stings.


Answers:

put a bandage on it during the day and take it off at night to let it breathe.
once it closes a little (probably a few days or so) put some lotion on it, or goldbond's foot cream.
also wear thick socks during the day to make it softer
you can use crutches if you want but thick socks migt do the trick
this happened to me so if you need anything else you can email me from my profile
