Have your feet examined for early symptoms that can reveal abnormalities such as diabetes, vascular problems or arthritis.  Check your arch.  If your arch is lowering this can lead to biomechanical problems and eventual collapse.  This can be prevented with early intervention and by avoiding abnormalities that result from flat feet.

It won’t be long until its sandal season and you’ll want your feet to be beach and sandal ready.  It’s never too early to treat problems to make sure you look good in sandals on the beach.  It is time to start thinking about sandals, no shoes.  If your nails and dystrophic thickening or yellow it can be onychomycosis (fungal nail infection).  It’s time for a check up.  Check skin and nails for signs of infection or abnormalities.  Excessive dryness, redness or cracking of skin or nails might be a sign of an underlying medical issue.  Thickening and yellow nails are abnormal; these can be a result of local infection or systemic problems

Healthy feet will keep you healthy.
