Quite frankly, the rainy season is here and caring for one's foot is very importaant during this time because rainy season takes a particular toll on the feet. Many problems may occur with the feet such as moles, dissociations and particularly bad odours. Foot problems, especially bad odour and infection are big risks during this season. And while you might think that covering them up protects them from the rain, the fact is that damp wather combined with cold temperatures, are a potentially hazardous combination for the feet.
People don't give much though to prevettive foot wellness, only taking care of unsightly foot problems after they develop. With just a little bit of care and caution, you can keep your feet in top shape. They need more care during the rainy season.
Now, always keep your feet warm, don't get your feet wet in the rain and if that happens, follow the procedure below.
* After walking through murky/dirty water, wash your feet with medicated saop, rinse with water and later soak in warm salt solution.
* Spray your feet with antiseptic foot spray for protection against bad odour.
* Make sure your shoes are dry; odour occurs from bacteria and sweat glands reactions, especially if your shoes are damp or airless.
*Soak your feet in warm salt water solution for about 5-10 minutes once a week. This helps!
* Use quality lotion to keep the skin of your feet soft and moist, but don't apply lotion in between your toes.
* Use an antifungal powder in the morning and anti-fungal cream at night.
* Finally, cut your toe nails regularly to avoid accumulation of dirt.
I hope this helps>
