Maintaining Healthy Feet
People often develop hard skin by wearing the wrong kind of shoes or abusing their feet. Seed corns, fallen arches, verrucae, chilblains, oedema, and infections can all cause significant pain and damage to the feet. When they are trapped in shoes that are too tight, feet become the perfect place for infection and other problems, such as athlete's foot, to develop. Learning how to stop all of this from happening is what good foot care is all about.
Firstly, it's important to wear shoes that are comfortable for your feet. High-heeled shoes cause a number of problems. For example, high heels force feet downward, placing stress on the ball of the foot. This excess pressure often leads to bunions and the development of hard skin. Flat shoes are a much better option.
It is advisable to wear flat, sensible shoes that allow air to reach your feet. When possible, remove your shoes and wear slippers. These are kinder to your feet and allow air to circulate as necessary. In addition, endeavour to keep your feet dry. Consider using foot powder or some cream to keep skin soft, and keep nails cut short - but not short enough to cause bleeding. Cutting the nail so short that it bleeds is the most common way of developing an in-grown toenail.
