General Tips

Here are some general tips specific to women's footcare:
-Check your feet daily. You should inspect for any abnormalities in your feet. Keep in mind that corns, calluses, bumps, and blisters can all be signs of other problems.
-Do not always wear nail polish. You should rotate the times when you wear toenail polish. You should especially refrain from nail polish when you are treating toenail fungus.
-Change your socks or hose daily. Hose especially prevent air from circulating around your legs and feet. You need to change your socks and shoes daily to allow proper time for them to dry out. If you sweat a lot, you should wear at least two different pairs of socks or hose during the day.
-Be careful not to go barefoot in warm, wet, dark places like public showers.
-Avoid high heels. Yes, they are fashionable, but they are not good for your feet. They cramp your toes and apply pressure in ways inconsistent with your foot's natural balance. You can wear high heels occasionally, but you should change shoes immediately if they begin to hurt.
