I have horrible allergies especially outdoor, and I am on medication for it which works excellent. I am able to do any out door activities with very few allergy problems as long as I stay on my medication.
BUT, of course allergy medications dry you out, and the worst side affect I have is dry cracking skin on my feet. Mostly the soles of my feet, and if I don't keep lotion on them they get very painful.
NOW the question I have is, I am just now getting back into backpacking with my son. I haven't hiked or backpacked for 25 years.
What is the best way to keep my feet in shape for backpacking. Of course I don't want them too soft and smooth to the point I get more blisters ,but I also don't want them dry and cracking to the point it causes pain when walking.
Any witch craft, home remedies, or even drug store medication would be appreciated
Thanks,
J
