Our feet can reveal a lot about our overall health, often showing early warning signs of conditions that may worsen if left untreated.
Recognizing these signals and using simple natural remedies can ease discomfort and help keep your feet in good shape.
1. Persistent Pain or Swelling
This may point to muscle strain, joint issues, or circulation problems.
2. Nail Changes
Alterations in nail color or thickness could signal fungal infections, other infections, or even nutritional deficiencies.
3. Thick Calluses or Corns
Often caused by repeated friction, pressure, or poorly fitted shoes.
4. Tingling or Numbness
May indicate neuropathy, poor blood flow, or a lack of essential vitamins.
