If you plan to be barefoot in public, you should make sure they look as healthy as possible. One of the best ways to achieve this is to exfoliate your feet to make them smooth and beautiful. Many people opt to do this by investing in a pumice stone to remove dead skin on their feet. The next thing you should do is ensure your feet are hydrated by applying a foot cream. If you want to have your feet professionally maintained, pedicures are a great way to do so. Salons are the ideal place to get your feet maintained in the summer, because nail professionals have the proper tools and skills to take care of your feet. If you want a natural nail color but still want your nails painted, you can try a light, flesh colored nail polish followed by a "mattifying" top coat. The result will give you natural looking nails that don’t appear to be painted. For any questions regarding foot care and maintenance, you shouldn't hesitate to contact your podiatrist.
Everyday foot care is very important to prevent infection and other foot ailments. If you need your feet checked, contact Dr. Yeon A. Shim from Roselle Podiatry Group. 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.
