Foot Care
Care of feet is usually taken when there occur some problems with them. However, the complex structure that keeps us standing right to deserve good attention. It is the feet that keep us upright taking up the full body weight.
Moreover, if you are a diabetic then you are most likely to opt for a nursing care plan for the diabetic foot as a result of the problems which come along with diabetes. Diabetes can cause nerve damage, reduces blood flow to the feet and puts you at higher risk for blisters and infections. With diabetes, small foot problems can turn into serious complications. Therefore, it is important to take good foot care for a diabetic patient’s healthy feet
There are factors such as exposure to cold temperature, prolonged sitting for a long time or smoking which reduces blood flow to the feet. Due to wear and tear injuries, poor circulation or improper nails can cause many foot problems.

If not treated immediately then it can become chronic. So, to prevent your feet from damage make sure to keep them clean and dry. For any fungal infection, you can treat it with a fungicidal powder.
Make sure to choose a good shoe for your feet. Many times due to the friction and pressure of bony areas against shoes result in corn and calluses. You can also check with a podiatrist to get good fitting shoes. Skin growths warts occur due to viruses and can spread if left untreated. Get professional care to remove the wart by surgical treatment.
Following physical exercises such as stretching, walking and gentle massage promote blood circulation and ensure healthy feet. Moreover, wearing comfy fitting shoes can also prevent foot ailments.
Poor fitting shoes can develop Bunions that deforms or weaken the foot. The swelling on the feet can be treated with wearing proper shoes that may provide relief. The protective pads can protect the painful area. Also, it can be treated by applying drugs or sometimes with surgery.
