Good Hygiene And Your Feet

Proper hygiene is crucial in the prevention of feet problems. Use foot tub to clean your feet before inspecting them.

 Warm water is always the best to clean your feet, using nondrying soaps only. You should never soak your feet in water as this can result in washing away essential skin oils that normally provide natural protection to the feet. 

After washing your feet, rinse soap off and completely dry the feet using a clean and dry towel while remembering to clean between your toes. 

Apply a moisturizing cream or lotion to feet soles and tops to prevent your skin from over drying, rubbing it gently leaving out areas between your toes as lotion in these places might lead to increased moisture causing skin to peel off paving way for infections. 

A talcum power if well used ensures that area between toes remains dry.
