👣 Happy International Podiatry Day from The Foot Company! 👣
Today, October 8th, we celebrate the importance of healthy feet and the incredible work of podiatrists worldwide. Your feet carry you through life, so let's give them the care they deserve!
Here are 5 essential foot health tips to keep you "Walking On Air":
🦶Wear suitable Footwear: Choose shoes that fit well, provide good support, and are appropriate for your activity. Avoid overly tight or high-heeled shoes for extended periods.
🦶Practice Good Foot Hygiene: Wash your feet daily with soap and water, paying attention to the spaces between your toes. Dry them thoroughly to prevent fungal infections.
🦶Trim Toenails Correctly: Cut your toenails straight across, not too short, and avoid cutting down the sides to prevent ingrown toenails.
🦶Moisturise Your Feet: Keep your skin hydrated to prevent dryness, cracks, and calluses. However, avoid moisturising between your toes.
🦶Listen to Your Feet: Don't ignore foot pain! If you experience persistent discomfort, swelling, or any unusual changes, it's a sign to seek professional advice.
Prioritising your foot health means taking a step towards a healthier, more active future!
