Best Tips For Foot Care

Author: Tanveer Video Entertainment
It is true that most of us neglect out feet. Taking care of our feet normally takes a back seat when compared to other beauty treatment. But we need to take care of our feet if we want to stay active and comfortable all through out lives. Taking care of our feet is important as if they do get damaged then a simple job like walking can become a painful exercise. Foot care can be simple and easy. Here are a few simple foot care tips that are not only good for the feet but are relaxing as well.
  • Take care of your feet regularly to keep calluses under control. Use a pumice stone or an abrasive foot scrub to remove the dead and rough skin. If this skin is not removed it will become hard and thick and can become cracked and infected making walking difficult.
  • Give your feet a foot bath. Put a cup of marbles in the bath water and roll your feet around on top of them to stimulate the nerve endings. Pick up the marbles with your toes, flex and contract your feet and toes and then let go off the marbles. This will allow the arches and muscles of the feet to stretch.
  • Get a foot massage once in a while. Ask a loved one to take time off to give you a foot massage. At the same time you can have a foot massage, which is extremely relaxing. Add a few drops of peppermint essential oil to your lotion for a sensational treat for your feet.
  • The skin on the soles of your feet does not have any oil glands to soften them. So use a good moisturizer every day. Every night put a generous amount of cream on your feet before you go to bed and then pull on a pair of cotton socks.
  • Every time you buy shoes ensure that you get your feet measure. Measure your feet standing and not sitting. The shape of your feet changes with age as a result of the daily pressure and pregnancy. Your feet are likely to expand and lengthen with age.
  • Replace your shoes every 6 months as well-worn shoes lose their ability to support your feet properly. This can lead to feet, leg and back fatigue and problems. If your job requires you to be on your feet all day it is best you change your shoes every 6 months.

Self Help Measures

Time is the only real cure in most cases of adolescent acne, but these tips can help:
Keep your skin clean. Using a clean washcloth every time, work the soap into your skin gently for a minute or two and rinse well.
Use a soap-free face wash or ask your doctor for the name of a good acne soap. Try an astringent lotion, de-greasing pads.
Use an over-the-counter lotion or cream that has benzoyl peroxide. (Some people are allergic to benzoyl peroxide. Try a little on your arm first to make sure it doesn't hurt your skin). Follow the directions as listed.
Wash after you exercise or sweat.
Wash your hair at least twice a week and keep it off your face.
Keep the hair off the face and wash the hair daily if needed.
For men: Wrap a warm towel around your face before you shave. This will make your beard softer. Always shave the way the hair grows.
Don't spend too much time in the sun and use an oil-free sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more.
Use only water-based makeup. Don't use greasy or oily creams, lotions, or make- ups.
Leave your skin alone! Don't squeeze, scratch, or poke at pimples. They can get infected and leave scars. Do not squeeze blackheads. The blackhead may be pushed deeper into the skin, possibly cause the follicle to rupture, and as a consequence make the acne worse.

Keep hands away from the face and thus avoid friction of the skin. Some suggestions are:

1. Don't prop your hands against your face
2. Don't `scrub' the face when washing
3. Don't rub the face
4. Avoid perspiration around the face as much as possible.
When self-care is not enough, you need to go see a doctor. Who may prescribe one or more of the following according to the patient's needs.
Note: Do not take these medications without the doctor's advice.

Antibiotics

1. Antibiotic creams and lotions are for application to the acne-affected areas of the body.These may lose efficacy over time.
2. Oral Antibiotics are given in a course of a few to several months.
Some side effects include (apart from the mostly minor side effects due to the antibiotic itself), loss of effectiveness in preventing acne after a period of time and occasional fungal infections.

Vitamin A preparations

1. Retin A cream or gel are quite effective in some patients, but they can be very drying and skin becomes very sensitive to the sun. They can be used in lower concentrations if these side effects occur.
2. Roacctane oral capsules are prescribed by the doctor in some cases of severe adult acne. They a given in a course of several months.
Roacctane is a highly teratogenic medicine, that is, it causes birth defects in fetuses of women who become pregnant while taking this medicine. Therefore pregnancy during this treatment is absolutely contraindicated. There are other parameters that have to be fulfilled before this treatment is prescribed.
