REMEMBER THE 5 C'S OF FOOT CARE!
















  • 1. CLEAN! Clean and check feet daily! Wash with warm, not hot, water. Pat dry. Check all over for blisters, corns, calluses, scratches.





  • 2. CONDITION! Use a moisturizer or cream daily. Choose one without perfume or alcohol.





  • 3. CARE! Clip nails straight across with a slight curve at the corners. Let your doctor or foot doctor take care of calluses!





  • 4. COVER! Always wear shoes, sneakers, or slippers to protect your feet. Make sure they fit correctly and don't rub or scratch. Cotton socks let your feet breathe.





  • 5. USE CAUTION! AND CALL! Be careful. Walk in good light. Take care in slippery places. Call your doctor if you have pain, swelling, soreness - any change in your feet.





KEEP YOUR FEET HEALTHY...TO KEEP THEM WORKING FOR YOU!
