Top Tips for Feet
* Feet are complex structures, which may reflect your general health and well-being. Symptoms such as persistent pain or soreness are warning signs. If, for example, you neglect a painful joint, it can deteriorate and become acutely painful. Then you may start walking badly to avoid the pain and that can lead to more serious postural problems.
* Wear footwear that supports the foot properly, reducing the chance of injury.
* Dont wear the same shoes every day.
* Choose footwear made of natural materials to help your feet to breathe.
* Air trainers before and after exercise to prevent build up of bacteria.
* Change stockings or socks at least once a day. Choose socks containing at least 70 per cent cotton or wool. Some socks made from man-made fibres can help keep sweat away from the skin, keeping the skin dry and reducing odour.
* Choose footwear made from natural fibres to allow your feet to breathe such as Gore-Tex.
