Quick Preventive Care Reminders

These preventive tips and remedies will help keep your feet in top condition:

Wear supportive shoes for daily or routine tasks to help prevent calluses, corns and other foot problems.   Soak your feet and use a pumice stone to prevent the buildup of thickening skin.

Do not go barefoot.   Plantar warts are caused by a virus which may invade the sole of the foot through cuts and breaks in the skin.   Walking barefoot on dirty pavements or littered ground can expose feet to this sometimes painful skin condition.

Prevent ingrown toenails.  Do not cut the nail too short.  Cut the nail straight across to keep the edge from splitting off and growing into the skin around the toe.
