7 Tips for Foot Health
Ft . care is an essential routine activity that should be done by almost all individuals to achieve optimum
wellness. Our feet contribute an essential role in our activities of daily living which generally requires
standing, walking and moving around. The lower body extremities particularly the feet appear to
support the entire weight of a person getting them to be the most overused part of the body. To help
avoid damage and promote foot care, here are seven ideas to promote foot health.
Inspect and palpate your feet frequently. Keeping track with your feet will help you notice any
modifications or foot irregularities when it suddenly differs in ft . colour, thickness, temperature, skin
turgor and note with regard to cracks. Also check for the capilliary refill of your toe nails that will
indicate adequate blood oxygenation. Any growth or even change on the foot is not considered normal
and should become consulted to a physician.
Wash your feet on a daily basis making sure to wash and wash in between the toes. Wet skin is
extremely vulnerable which is prone to cracking and lesions since the pores and skin become inelastic.
Make sure you let your feet completely dry simply by using a towel to prevent skin from impairment.
Trim and reduce your toenails. Be careful not to overly trim your toenails to avoid from skin damage and
injury. For ladies and lasses who else enjoy pedicures and nail art, make sure not to extend the nail paint
over a week. Use a mild toenail polish remover to completely cleanse the nail polish. Continuous paint
will cause the nails to be brittle and may result in certain foot problems.
Select the appropriate shoe and boot size for your feet. When buying a new pair of shoes, consider and
also prioritize the comfort it will bring your feet and not after the sneaker style. The best time for shoe
fitting is during the day once the feet are at its largest.
As much as possible, avoid walking along with running barefooted at your home. Walking barefooted
may lead to an event that may impair and aggravate the condition of your feet. It is best recommended
and wise to put on your slippers even at home to prevent virtually any possible accident.
After a long stand, walk, run, a frustrating and stressful day at work, lifting your legs from the wall will
benefit your foot and legs venous return which promotes blood circulation. It is said that promoting
venous return can aid in preventing formation of blood clots and plaques in the feet due prolonged
standing, bloodstream pooling and inadequate circulation.
Lastly, never disregard just about any foot or ankle pain even though you have a strong discomfort
threshold and tolerance. Any pain connotes that there is a good inflammation or any underlying cause
within. It is better to consult your physician or a podiatric physician to help diagnose and treat this.
For diagnosed type one or type two diabetes, fixing your feet plays a major role in maintaining your
health. Foot or so lesions and wounds are the common cause of leg altération for diabetic people. Make
sure to routinely check and do foot or so care as recommended to prevent amputation from happening.
