Look at your feet every day to see if you have scratches, cracks, cuts, or blisters. Always check between your toes and on the bottoms of your feet. If you can't bend over to see the bottoms of your feet, use a mirror that won't break. If you can't see well, ask a family member or friend to help you. Call your health care provider at once if you have a sore on your foot.
Sores can get worse quickly.
Your Feet Daily Wash your feet every day. Dry them with care, especially between the toes. Don't soak your feet - it can dry out your skin, and dry skin can lead to infections. Moisture between the toes will let germs grow that could cause an infection. Ask your health care provider for the name of a good lotion or cream.
