One of the joys of walking on the beach is going barefoot. Podiatrists,
however, advise against it, especially if you are diabetic or have any foot
problems. Walking barefoot, even inside your own home or backyard, exposes you
to the risk of stepping on broken glass or rusty nails that can wound your
feet, or make you prone to infections from viruses that cause warts on your
soles. If you want to let your feet breathe, wear sandals or a pair of
flip-flops. If you must walk barefoot on the beach, take precautions.
Foot Care Benefits
You can avoid unwanted bodily pains and illnesses by taking care of your
feet. Dedicating some hours a week to foot care should be a part of your health
and beauty ritual, an advice that applies not only to women but to metrosexuals
who have a regimen for looking good and feeling good.
Learn to do foot massage, on yourself or on your partner. This is one skill
you will appreciate forever. Coupled with advances in podiatric medicine like
foot makeovers, foot facelifts, and toe tucks, basic foot care will make your
feet healthy and beautiful, helping you feel good and relaxed the whole day.
