Please can someone recommend a good foot cream for dry and cracked skin on foot on T2 diabetic.
Ive been told to look for an ingredient called urea?
Any good ones from local pharmacies like Boots etc
 
There was a recent thread on foot creams. You should be able to find it if you use the Search in the top right of the page.
If I remember correctly, Flexitol was the main one that was recommended.
 
Hi the nurse I see at my diabetes check ups told me that any cream is fine, as long as its a moisturiser. I popped into our local Boots which was the nearest chemist to the surgery/taxi and got a cheap one that does the job fine. I smear it on each night before bed, and with old socks that won't get spoiled, and overnight it does it's thing. Has worked fine for me.

Ureum helps with calluses, I use over the counter generic stuff, after my husband turned out to really seriously detest my tea tree oil cream. ;) If it's really bad, you might want to try your GP for one with a higher ureum content though.
