Foot stomps. How do you prevent them from appearing when you are wearing shoes for many hours

Calluses are a common problem, especially experienced by people who wear uncomfortable shoes or spend long hours in shoes while performing physically demanding activities. This is also the case with doctors who sometimes perform 30-hour shifts, during which they constantly go from one patient to another and stand for hours.

In this article we will tell you why warts appear and how you can prevent them.

Why do calluses occur?

Uncomfortable footwear can put pressure on certain areas of the skin, which creates accumulations of superficial skin. Basically, it forms as a natural defense mechanism of the skin to protect the tissue. The most common reasons for their appearance are:

• Uncomfortable footwear: shoes that are too tight or made of unsuitable materials, causing discomfort
• Intense physical activity: people who sit a lot or perform demanding physical activity are more likely to experience the formation of calluses
• Certain deformities of the foot: another aspect that favors the appearance of hyperkeratosis (localized thickening of the skin layer) is the soles, because that area is even more prone

Where warts form most often

Certain areas are more exposed than others. Especially if you are wearing new shoes you should pay attention to these areas:

• Heels: the easiest way to prevent bunions in this area is to wear orthopedic medical clogs, as they are open at the back and do not put pressure on the heel, and the orthopedic sole provides extra comfort

• Toes: shoes that do not respect the physiognomy of the foot force the toes to sit in unnatural positions, which creates pressure and favors the formation of calluses between or on the outside of the toes

• Soles: The lower part of the foot is equally exposed, and this is where the sole of the shoe you wear is very important. The material must be comfortable and non-slip so as to reduce friction.

What is the most effective treatment for warts

Arguably, the best treatment for warts is prevention. However, if you are already facing this problem, here are the right solutions:

• Apply an emollient product with proven effectiveness: to eliminate the discomfort in the shortest time, go to the pharmacy and ask for a cream that accelerates the healing process. Also, to soften the area, you can keep your feet in warm water, and then use a special file to remove the excess skin. Don't forget to apply the cream afterwards for hydration.

• Protect the affected area: The last thing you need is for your condition to get worse. So, use special bandages for bunions to reduce friction and pressure on the affected area. At the same time, it's important to let your skin breathe in the evening, so remove the dressing after taking off your shoes and sanitize the area to remove traces of sweat.

How to prevent piles from shoes

The simplest way to prevent hyperkeratosis is to choose the right footwear. It is very important to wear your size so that the foot has good support. The shape of the shoe is equally important, and orthopedic ones are an optimal option, because they respect the normal physiognomy of the foot. Also, their insole helps distribute pressure evenly across the foot and reduces the risk of certain areas being overstressed. Orthopedic clogs from Medicalwear are ideal for both doctors and those who want to wear comfortable footwear. The models are varied and have an interesting design, so they can be matched with various medical uniforms.

During the warm season, we suggest you wear orthopedic sandals , which provide optimal support but are cut to allow air circulation. Wearing them prevents the accumulation of moisture and regulates the temperature of the feet so that you can enjoy all the comfort. This is a particularly important aspect, as excessive sweating softens the skin and makes it more prone to calluses.

How useful is orthopedic footwear in such cases

If you have to spend a lot of time on your feet in shoes and you are already facing this problem, do not hesitate to give your feet the necessary care to avoid complications. Wear orthopedic shoes to avoid aggravating bunions. Medicalwear products help to distribute body weight evenly over the entire surface of the foot and thus prevent pressure points that cause bunions.
