Foot Baths and Moisturizers for Foot Care

Monday, 01 March 2021 00:00

Research has indicated that daily foot care is essential in possibly preventing unpleasant foot conditions. Some of these conditions can include cracked heels and calluses. It is beneficial to wash your feet daily, followed by drying them thoroughly. Additionally, it may help to exfoliate and lather them with a good moisturizer. Some patients apply cuticle oil to the edge of the toenails, as this can help to keep the overall foot smooth. Performing weekly  buffing routines and monthly peels or foot soaks are necessary in keeping the feet looking their best. If you would like additional information about how to perform everyday foot care routines, please consult with a podiatrist.

Everyday foot care is very important to prevent infection and other foot ailments. If you need your feet checked, contact Gregory Rorick, DPM from Rorick Podiatry, PC. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.

Everyday Foot Care

Often, people take care of their bodies, face and hair more so than they do for their feet. But the feet are a very important aspect of our bodies, and one that we should pay more attention to. Without our feet, we would not be able to perform most daily tasks.

It is best to check your feet regularly to make sure there are no new bruises or cuts that you may not have noticed before. For dry feet, moisturizer can easily be a remedy and can be applied as often as necessary to the affected areas. Wearing shoes that fit well can also help you maintain good foot health, as well as making it easier to walk and do daily activities without the stress or pain of ill-fitting shoes, high heels, or even flip flops. Wearing clean socks with closed shoes is important to ensure that sweat and bacteria do not accumulate within the shoe. Clean socks help to prevent Athlete’s foot, fungi problems, bad odors, and can absorb sweat.
