How to Care for Your Feet
• Give your feet a gentle
washing in lukewarm water.
Avoid soaking for more than 10
minutes. Ensure to dry
between your toes when
drying your feet.

• If thick rough skin is present,
give it a light scrub with a
pumice stone or foot file during
or after washing the feet. Do
not try to cut these off with
sharp instruments.

• If the skin tends to be dry or
cracked, apply a good body
lotion to the feet after washing
to help hold in moisture. But
do not put lotion between toes

• If the skin tends to be sweaty,
a sprinkling of foot powder
helps keep the skin dry. A
change of socks during the
day may be needed.

• When trimming toenails, be
sure you can see what you are
doing. Trim the nails straight
across. Don’t cut down the
sides, or cut V’s into the free
edge.
