Q: The socks you wear can have a significant effect on the fit of your new cowboy boots, so take that into account when trying your boots on for the first time. Make sure to wear socks similar to those you intend to wear regularly in cowboy boots. Choosing socks that reach your pant leg or even the full height of the boot can prevent skin irritation from the boot rubbing on your bare skin. Pay attention to the thickness of your socks when determining if a boot is loose or tight. The ball of your foot should be situated at the widest point in the boot to make sure your boots won't cause any undue stress in your feet. If you place the ball of your foot in the widest portion of the boot and your heel is not near the back of the boot, you will need a smaller size. If your toes and heel make it difficult to place the ball of your foot in the widest portion of the boot, you will need a bigger size. It's important to make sure you have sufficient room for your toes and that your heel doesn't slip around as you walk. Even if you have the ball of your foot placed properly, some styles of boot may limit toe room or fit on your foot in an odd way. You should have about a thumb width of space between the end of your toe and the tip of the boot. Your heel should not slide up and down at all in the boot as you walk, this could cause blisters and make wearing the boots painful. Wearing boots that are too narrow for your feet can cause pain simply by wearing them, and would certainly causes issues if you intend to work while wearing your boots. Look down while wearing the boots. They should be snug, but you should be able to see the stitching on the outsole of the boot on either side while they're on. If the boots are too wide, that looseness could also cause your heel to rub, creating blisters. Women's Cowboy Boots are typically sized in A, B and C widths, while Men's Cowboy Boots are typically sized in B, D and EE widths. While cowboy boots that fit well should be comfortable right out of the box, they will grow more comfortable as you break them in by wearing them. Leather boots eventually take on the shape of your foot and can become extremely comfortable. Wear your boots often while standing and walking to break them in quickly. Breaking in boots can cause blisters, so be sure to take good care of your feet and wear fresh socks when wearing your cowboy boots.
A: Wear the right socks. Make sure the ball of your foot is in widest part of the boot. Check your toes and heels. Make sure your boots are wide enough. Break them in.

Article: Deep tissue massage is helpful for muscle function in general because it reduces muscle tension and promotes better circulation, which are important factors for preventing strains, spasms and cramps. If your muscle soreness doesn't fade away after a few days of rest and using home remedies, then schedule a 30-minute massage with a registered massage therapist. Have the therapist focus on your sore muscle and all directly related muscles and allow them to go as deep as you can tolerate it without wincing. Your therapist may also use trigger point therapy that focuses on the injured muscle fibers. In terms of frequency, everybody's financial situation and muscle injury is unique. Some people may derive benefit and value from a single massage, others may seek it out multiple times per month. As an alternative, ask your partner or spouse to massage your sore muscle(s). There's lots of instructional videos on the internet that can teach the basics of massage and offer pointers, although it's no substitute for professional training. Always keep well hydrated after a massage in order to flush inflammatory by-products and lactic acid from the body. Failure to do so might lead to nausea or a mild headache. Acupuncture treatment is based on principles of traditional Chinese medicine and involves inserting very thin needles into specific energy points under your skin in efforts to reduce pain and inflammation. Acupuncture for muscle and joint soreness can be very effective, especially if it's done when acute symptoms first develop. Acupuncture works by triggering your body to release endorphins and serotonin (among other chemicals), which act to combat musculoskeletal pain. Acupuncture has a good safety record and is relatively affordable, so it's worth a try if your muscle soreness lingers and is not impacted by other treatments or approaches. There is mixed evidence that acupuncture is effective for relieving chronic muscle and joint issues, but there's many anecdotal reports that it can help. Realize that the acupuncture points used to reduce your soreness may not be located in or near the problematic muscle some points can be in distant areas of the body. Acupuncture is practiced by more healthcare professionals than ever before, including some physicians, chiropractors, physical therapists and massage therapists whoever you choose should be certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. If your muscle soreness is recurring (chronic) and acerbated by weakness, poor posture, overuse and/or degenerative conditions (such as osteoarthritis), then you need to consider undertaking some physical therapy and muscle rehabilitation. A physical therapist can show you specific and tailored stretches and strengthening exercises for your chronically sore muscles. It may seem counterintuitive to exercise while you feel soreness, but chronically weak muscles often quit generating pain when they are strengthened and start to function normally. Physiotherapy is usually required two to three times per week for four to eight weeks to positively impact chronically sore muscle issues. In addition to strengthening exercises, physical therapists can also use therapeutic devices to treat your muscle soreness, such as electronic muscle stimulation (EMS), therapeutic ultrasound, infrared (heat) therapy and/or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). EMS and TENS devices can be purchased from medical supply and rehabilitation stores (online too) and used at home. However, they should only be used under the supervision or advice of a healthcare professional. Good general muscle strengthening exercises include swimming, rowing and bouncing on a mini-trampoline.

Q: Most healthy people will need to see their dental health care provider twice a year. When you see your dentist, you should get a dental cleaning. Your dentist or hygienist will use dental instruments to remove plaque and tartar from your teeth. They will then polish them with a special toothpaste. Most dentists will recommend dental X-rays at least once a year. This can help your dentist see if you have any problems inside your teeth. Your dentist will check each tooth for cavities as well as examine your gums for signs of gum disease. These are plastic preventive sealant coverings for your teeth. These seal off the crevices on your teeth where food gets stuck. Sealants protect the enamel against acid and plaque and are recommended for both children and adults. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggest that school age children should have dental sealants, as they can reduce tooth decay in children by over 70%. These sealants can last up to 10 years before they will need to be replaced. Your dentist will need to check them regularly at 6 month checkups to make sure they are intact. If you don't drink tap water or use fluoride toothpaste, you may need fluoride treatments. Fluoride treatments are typically done in the office during your dental cleaning. Your dentist will fill up trays with a fluoride gel or paste. These will need to sit in your mouth and on your teeth for several minutes. These treatments can help to strengthen your enamel.
A:
See your dentist and dental hygienist for regular cleanings and checkups. Ask your dentist about sealants. Talk to your dentist about fluoride treatments.
