HEALTH FOR ALL
j CARITO FOR THE FEET
»
J’Thcthcr'a person is fat, thin, or "just
avorago," his foot have the heavy burden
of supporting and propelling'the entiro
rcight of his body every day. Naturally
the heavier'a por3om is and the moro ho is
on his feet, the greater their burden,
| But nhat care docs tho averngo person give
! his feet? He either forgets about them on
| tircly or nbusos them until thoy begin to
ihurt,' Yet onco tho fodt arc achirig or dis
abled, it is difficult, literally, "to get
anyrhero" or to rork and play to full capa
city.
One of the most painful of all foot ail
ments is fallen archos. It is caused by
| the roakening or displacement of either the
arch running from the hell to the base of
tho toes, or tho other foot'arch rhich gees
across the ball of the foot. Both archos
must have the support of good 3hocs that
fit properly if they are to remain strong
and stay in their natural positions. Im
proper footvroar'con causo cithor of these
archos to "fall." Fallen arqjics demand
the immediate attention of an orthopedic
physician. Ho may ordor specially fitted
arch supports for tho patient and teach him
foot exorcises that rill strengthen his
archos.
Many pcoplo insist thcynust "break in*?
overy nor pair of shoos. If shoos aro good
and fitted properly, there is no need for
breaking them in. *’*nd one pair of wrong
or improperly fitted shoes may mean painful
and serious foot trouble*
’’Then feet and ankles swell a physician
should be consulted without delay, sineo'
this night be a sign of cortain diseases.
Of course, it might be duo to unimportant
causos but the physician is the one who can
detect tho real cause and prescribe measures
for corrcdtion.
Habits of cleanliness arc important in foot
hygiene. Tho daily foot bath should be fol
lowed by'careful drying, especially between
the toes. Stockings should be washed after
every wearing. Changing shoes and hose otcr
often helps to relieve fatigue and the ef
fects of excessive foot perspiration;
Blisters and cuts on the feet should, of
course, receive' immediate attention to
avoid ii.feet ion.
