We rarely pay any attention to our feet, but due to their importance for our health, we really should try more. Not caring for your feet can lead to injuries, blisters, redness, cracks and other problems that require special attention. Plus, the feet are greatly exposed in the summer, and seeing them cracked or inflamed isn’t really pleasant.
Besides the aforementioned problems, we often suffer from fungal and bacterial infections and odor coming from our feet which can have a negative impact on our overall health and lifestyle. Furthermore, an increasing number of people are suffering from feet pain, which is most often brought on by wearing inappropriate and uncomfortable footwear.
Treating feet pain
The first way to deal with feet pain is to wear comfortable shoes, but there are also many natural remedies and simple tricks which can relieve the pain in your feet.
Change the way you tie the shoes
We sometimes, tie our shoes the wrong way without even realizing that it hurts us. Tie a good knot, but make sure not to tighten it too much, or it’ll squeeze your feet and cause pain.
Rest
If you’re wearing high heels or tight shoes all day long, we strongly suggest getting a bit of rest in order to regulate your circulation and prevent the pain in your feet. Just take off your shoes and raise your feet for 5-10 minutes to prevent the pain.
Gel bows
Gel bows can reduce the impact of high heels on your feet and prevent foot pain.
Blister prevention patches
These patches will prevent blisters on your feet and reduce the risk of pain afterwards.
Stretched shoes
Every pair of shoes you have at home will stretch over time and become pretty uncomfortable. In order to prevent this, you can put a bag of ice inside to constrict them and make them fit better.
Besides following these tips, you should also take water-salt baths more often or soak your feet in ginger or chamomile tea every day. This will treat any kind of problem with your feet and prevent the pain, which will definitely make you feel better.
