Foot discomfort that cannot be ignored

Many people do not regard foot discomfort as a disease. Many people think that foot discomfort may be caused by wearing inappropriate shoes, walking too much, or climbing mountains. Foot discomfort includes foot pain, fear of touching the ground, etc. In fact, feet are very important. I wonder if you have noticed that feet look like a person when viewed from the side.

The base of the big toe represents the head, the base of the toes represents the neck, and the rest are the various parts of the human body. Each organ of the human body can be maintained and treated through foot massage. Foot discomfort is usually what everyone imagines, but there are also some foot discomforts that cannot be ignored.

1. Feet become smooth and hairless: body circulation and metabolism problems

There are some hairs on the feet near the toes. If you suddenly find that they become smooth one day, it means that the body's metabolic function has declined, resulting in blood being unable to flow to the extremities of the body and provide nutrients to the hair follicles. It may also be a sign of heart weakness. You can ask a doctor to help measure your pulse and check your heart function.

2. Frequent leg cramps: malnutrition, lack of water in the body

There are many possible reasons for cramps. In severe cases, it may be a foot problem caused by genetic defects, while in mild cases, it may just be due to lack of nutrients in the body. If cramps occur during exercise, it means that muscle contraction is caused by insufficient water intake; consuming more foods containing minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and calcium can also improve cramps. If you already have cramps, you can put your feet in hot water and slowly stretch your toes towards yourself to relieve them.

3. Sudden swelling of toes: gout or other inflammatory problems

The toes and other joints are the main sites of gout attacks. At this time, there will be pain and swelling. The swelling of the toe joints may also be caused by inflammation of other related parts, so we must see a doctor as soon as possible.

Feet are an important part of our body and the source of our body's energy. In addition, feet can also convey the condition of our body. Whether it is the skin, toenails, heels or any other part of our feet, they can send very important signals to our body. Wounds that are difficult to heal on the feet may indicate diabetes.
