Other tips to keep your feet healthy after 65
Check your feet daily
Especially if you have diabetes. Look for wounds, blisters, or color changes.
Do gentle stretching exercises
Move your ankles in circles, stretch your toes, and walk barefoot on soft surfaces to stimulate the muscles.
Wear comfortable and appropriate shoes
Shoes with good cushioning and non-slip soles prevent falls and pains.
Cut your nails carefully
Always straight, to avoid ingrown toenails or infections.
Alternate with foot baths
You can immerse your feet in warm water with coarse salt or chamomile infusions to relax and reduce inflammation.
