Check your feet regularly or have a member of your family check them for you.<\/li>\n<li>Keep blood circulating to your feet as much as possible. Do this by putting your feet up when you are sitting or lying down, stretching if you&#8217;ve had to sit for a long while, walking, having a gentle foot massage, or taking a warm foot bath.<\/li>\n<li>Wear comfortable shoes that fit well to prevent pressures that can lead to friction and infection and keep your foot structure properly aligned.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t sit for long periods of time (especially with your legs crossed).<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t smoke because it decreases blood supply and increases the chance of swelling and other circulatory problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s normal for people to experience some foot problems as they age.
