Geriatrician Questions Dry skin

My father has severe dry skin around his feet. What can I apply?

My father has extremely dry skin around his feet which also seems to be a different color than the rest of his skin. I have applied moisturizers but it's not really helping. Can you suggest any medicated ointment or any other treatment?

It is called xerosis. Apply moisturizer live aveeno or even simple Vaseline works. Apply twice a day.
