Anybody who has ever worn uncomfortable shoes has probably had foot corns and calluses problems.

They turn up when too much pressure is applied on the foot skin, such as when the bones of the feet press against tight shoes and also press against each other. Most people get foot corns and calluses on the big toes, fifth toes, and metatarsals, where pressure is particularly rougher.

Fortunately, this type of foot condition is fairly easy to treat. Doctors will prescribe wider shoes or cushion pads to relieve pressure. In some advanced cases though, surgery may be needed.

Sometimes, the things you do to clean your toenails can do more harm than good. Over-clipping and digging deep into the sides can cause nails to throb, swell, and become infected and may lead to more serious foot problem called ingrown toenails.

The same happens when you cut your nails improperly, the toenail grows into the corner, causing an ingrown toenail.

Professional help is recommended when treating these infections. Podiatrists usually remove the nail spike/s and clean the area. In some cases, you may be required to take antibiotics. In worst case, you may have a simple operation to remove the jammed area of the toenail for your foot to heal.

Fungi are attracted to warm and moist areas of the body such as the feet, usually between sweaty toes. Unprotected feet can contact fungi from a lot of places, including swimming pools, shared changing areas, etc.

The fungi latch onto the foot and casue it to itch, crack and peel. If untreated during the early stages, the fungi can even spread to
the toenails and lead to server foot problem called athletes foot.

Luckily, it is easy to deal with athletes foot. There are many over-the-counter anti-fungal spays, creams, and powder available. Milder cases can be treated by powder. Use spray if the infected foot area is moist and a cream counterpart if the area is dry.

It takes very little effort to take care of your feet and keep your feet in a healthy shape. Here are some habits you can develop:

1) Wear only shoes that fit. Your feet need room to breathe, so do not cramp them inside fashionable but very uncomfortable shoes.
2) Keep your feet dry. Make sure that the areas between your toes are completely dry before you put socks on. If you have sweaty feet, consider regularly dabbing them with cotton wool. Some experts also suggest that you avoid wearing the same sneakers everyday, allow a pair to dry for 24 hours first before using it again.
3) Wash your feet daily. A simple scrub down in the shower does wonders.
4) Use clean socks. Never use an unlaundered pair, or you could be inviting fungi.
