Since the feet are not visible most of the time, we sometimes tend to forget to provide them with the necessary care. As a result, many foot problems can occur, including cracked heels, dry skin, itching, varicose veins, corns, and even fungus and infections. Fortunately, these problems are not irremediable and the following remedy will help you relieve their symptoms successfully!
What causes foot problems?
Age: As you get older, your veins can lose their elasticity. The valves of the veins may become weak, and the blood may accumulate in them, so they enlarge and become varicose. The veins appear blue because they contain deoxygenated blood, which is being recirculated through the lungs.
Pregnancy: Some pregnant women develop varicose veins. Pregnancy increases the volume of blood in the body, but decreases the flow of blood from the legs and feet to the pelvis. This circulatory change is designed to support the growing fetus, but it can produce a side effect ie enlarged veins in the legs and feet.
Inappropriate shoes: You can develop corns on your feet if you wear shoes that are too tight. If you walk for long periods of time, your body weight and constant friction can also cause painful corns on the lower part of your feet.
A lack of care and attention: Poor nutrition and lack of skin hydration can also be the cause of foot problems such as cracked feet.
The remedy that we present in this article will allow you to fight against varicose veins, corns, and treat cracked heels.
