| General Footcare Tips |
- Inspect your feet regularly. Pay attention to changes in colour and temperature. Look for thick or discoloured nails (a sign of developing fungus), and check for cracks or cuts in the skin. Peeling or scaling on the soles of feet could indicate Athlete's foot.
- Wash your feet regularly, especially between the toes, and be sure to dry them completely.
- Trim toenails straight across, but not too short. Be careful not to cut nails in corners or on the sides; it can lead to ingrown toenails. Persons with diabetes, poor circulation or heart problems should not treat their own feet because they are more prone to infection.
- Make sure that your shoes fit properly. Purchase new shoes later in the day when
feet tend to be at their largest and replace worn out shoes as soon as possible.
- Alternate shoes - don't wear the same pair of shoes every day.
- Avoid walking barefooted. Your feet will be more prone to injury and infection.
- Be cautious when using home remedies for foot ailments. Self-treatment can often turn a minor problem into a major one.
- If you are a diabetic, contact us at least once a year for a check-up.
