Cold weather can take its toll on your feet so make sure they are the centre of attention this winter.
When you think about how much time we spend on our feet, it is hardly surprising that winter and a night out can leave them feeling battered and bruised.
Most of us are guilty of neglecting our feet and often gaze at thorn in dismay when we take off our socks. We are especially prone to letting our foot care routine lapse during the cold winter months when we just want to bundle them up in fluffy socks and big boots.
Angela Cottingham is a state-registered chiropodist/podiatrist. She said: "The big thing about winter is that people go from a summer sandal to a more enclosed shoe and the biggest problem people face is that their shoes do not always fit properly.
"It is more important that you have a good, sensible fit for your everyday shoes than for outdoor shoes.
"If you have a correctly fitting everyday shoe, then you have fewer problems with your feet and toes."
Angela, who has been qualified for 14 years, recommends that the same pair of shoes is not worn every day.
"It is a good idea to vary shoes and have your feet measured properly once a year. "Feet change and it is amazing how many people are wearing the wrong-sized shoes."
As far as she is concerned, the most common problems in winter are dry and cracked skin and chilblains. The answer is to moisturise. Angela says it should be done at least once a day using a good quality cream.
It doesn't have to be a cream specifically designed for feet and Angela recommends keeping a pot by the bed and doing it at night.
"Some people put socks on afterwards so the cream doesn't go on the bed and because it makes it easier for the cream to be absorbed,"
she said. "There is nothing wrong with wearing socks at night for whatever reason, as long as they are clean ones."
The most important thing to remember in foot care is to maintain a steady temperature and not expose your feet to extreme heat or cold.
"If you are going outside in the winter, even if it is just to put something in the dustbin, make sure you have shoes and socks on," said Angela.
It is also important to only put on dry footwear.
"If you have been out in the rain or snow and your shoes are wet, make sure they are dried properly before you wear them again." she said.
And lastly, she recommends adding a chiropodist to your address hook.
She advises visiting a chiropodist as often as you do-or should do - the dentist, not just as a one-off.
"The most important thing to do is to maintain your foot care. If you visit someone and they get your feet into shape, then you need to maintain their condition
Just wear woolen socks n wear shoes when going out.
Please ask the question with more details. The obvious answer is wear shoes and/or socks.
You can go barefoot in winter and not get cold feet, let alone frostbite. There are several things to remember.
First is, keep the rest of your body warm. When you go out in the cold, your body's priority is keeping the temperature in your vital organs at normal level, that means your torso & head. When you start to get cold, circulation withdraws from your extremities into those areas to limit heat loss, and the first things that will *feel* cold are your feet & hands. That's why people often think that if you put shoes on you'll remain warm and if you go barefoot you must be getting terribly cold! But if your upper body & head are very warm, if you wear a wool hat, a thick sweater, a thick coat, and even cover most of your legs in nice warm leggings to limit heat loss underway to your feet, then your circulatory system can -with a bit of practice/training- keep your feet warm even in freezing temperatures & snow!
Second: training. Like any system in our bodies, this does take a bit of getting used to; many people who have airco in summer & heating in winter and don't do much outdoor activities in extreme weather have forgotten how to keep their own body at a comfortable temperature... not just in a rational way, as most answers here show: 'put shoes on' or 'stay indoors' but also your body won't be able to adjust as quickly if you've never gone barefoot outside and suddenly do so on a day when it's 10F and windy. But if you go barefoot year round, you may just be amazed at how long you can keep barefooting in fall/winter.
Third: keep moving! When you start barefooting, go for a pretty brisk walk. You can even clench your toes at every step for extra warmth; muscles create warmth when you use them & motion also stimulates circulation. Wiggle your toes when you have to stand still. If you get used to this you may actually find you'll get less cold toes than you did wearing shoes; in shoes, your foot can't move that well, circulation is often restricted, and if you stand around long enough in shoes, you'll probably get cold feet. I had numb toes that hurt when warming up *very* often when I still wore boots & rode my bicycle a lot; while I moved my legs, my feet were way too confined in there. Since I've gone barefoot, I've pushed my limits a few times & was just _starting_ to get a bit numb when I got home, but my feet haven't ever hurt warming up like I remember from my shod days, not once!!!
Fourth: food. Unless you're really watching your weight, you may want to eat a little more fat than you would during summer or when staying indoors. Don't gobble up three plates of bacon rinds & a jar of mayonaise :P but a bit more fat will help keep you warm. The Inuit eat loads of fat in winter, unless you want to live in an iglo I wouldn't eat quite as much as them but still you're gonna need a bit of a heat source. Don't forget to lay off when it's warmer, too.
Fifth: sole-less footwear. I like to keep my entire foot bare if at all possible, but a good alternative is a 'barefoot gaiter'. This is a cover for the top of the foot, attached around the ankle, the big or second toe (own preference) and only a strap underneath the sole to help keep it in place. This is especially helpful in deeper snow to keep the snow from hitting the thin skin on top of the foot.
IMPORTANT! If you do go outside in freezing weather, watch your feet for signs of numbness, for you do not want to get frostbite. When I step outside, right away my feet will feel a bit cold, but they will warm up within 5-10 minutes at most. If they're red, that's okay; it means there's lots of blood flowing and blood/circulation is what transports the heat from the rest of your body (which, remember, is warmly dressed). If they turn pale and/or go numb, that is not good! Be prepared to go inside and warm up, or put footwear on after all if you see any sign of this at all. I haven't needed my footwear for two winters, even though I've been working for hours in the snow at temps well below freezing sometimes, but I still don't leave the house without footwear in my bag when it's really cold. Pushing your limits is fun; getting careless/cocky & getting frostbite because you had no way to get warm is not.
use sox every time (except in bed). Sox and shoe are best to protect bare foot in winter.
