Look after your feet during Covid-19

Written By Jacqui Coulson

During this very difficult time that may last for many months yet, it is important for those of you who can not receive your regular foot care to look after your feet so you may remain pain free and as active as possible.

Here are 5 simple things you can do to help:

  • Wash your feet regularly in a bowl of warm soapy water and dry them thoroughly

  • Cut your nails straight across but if this is too difficult use a nail file instead to just remove a little of the length

  • Use a paddle file to remove a little from callused areas

  • Use a good urea based foot cream to moisturise and massage your feet but not in between the toes

  • Wear footwear that is suitable for the activity you are undertaking
