पैरों की आम समस्याएं कौन सी हैं?
पैरों की कुछ समस्याएं काफी आम हैं
- पैर की ऐंठन (फुट क्रेम्प्स)– Some people experience foot cramps, especially at night. This can be due to long periods of standing or wearing ill fitting footwear. Other reasons could be a lack of nutrients like calcium or potassium. Sometimes, cramps can be due to a lack of proper blood circulation, especially if the feet tend to get cold and blue. Smokers especially are prone to such issues. Increasing your intake of milk, lemon water and warm salt water soaks might help if the cramps are due to some deficiency. In case the pain persists, it might be a good idea to get a checkup by your doctor.
- कॉर्न्स और कॉलसिस– Corns and calluses are common foot problems. These can be due to ill fitting footwear or some structural issue with the feet, like flat feet. Orthotic support, like foot supports, heel pads or orthotic shoes can help to alleviate the problem.
- पैरों की उँगलियों के नाखूनों की समस्या (टो नेल इशू)– Most people don’t realize that the toe nails can be affected by many diseases. The commonest is fungal infection of the toe nails, in which there is discoloration of the nails and they can spontaneously fall off too. Nails can also be affected by psoriasis, so it’s best to get a checkup by your doctor if you notice any changes in your nails.
- खुजलीवाले सकेली फ़ीट– Dry feet can be due to a lack of moisture in the feet. It can also be due to a fungal infection or a long term allergic condition, like eczema. In case regular moisturizing is not helping, then it’s best to consult your doctor.
- डायबिटिक फुट– People with diabetes are prone to getting infections of the feet, even leading to gangrene of the foot. This is called diabetic foot and occurs due to a decrease in the blood supply of the foot and also a decrease in the sensations in the feet. As a result, the affected person doesn’t pay attention to minor injuries and infections in the feet and the condition tends to worsen rapidly. For diabetics, good foot hygiene is an essential part of diabetes care. In includes proper cleaning and drying of feet and proper disinfection of injuries and immediate care in case there is some infection, like a boil.
आप पैरों की समस्याओं से कैसे बचाव कर सकते हैं?
- Wear comfortable shoes- Ill fitting shoes are a common cause of foot discomfort. It’s advisable to buy shoes in the afternoon as the feet expand during the day, so you’re more likely to get a comfortable fit.
- Basic feet hygiene- It’s important to wash your feet carefully with soap and a brush. Equally important is to dry them well as that keeps fungal infections at bay.
- Cut nails straight across and file them to prevent rough edges. By doing this it’s possible to prevent ingrown nails and hang nails.
- अक्सर मोज़े बदलते रहने से पैरों की दुर्गंध को रोकने में मदद मिलती है|
- हर समय ऊँची एड़ी के जूते पहनने से बचें, शरीर के वजन को पैरों पर समान रूप से वितरित करने के लिए ब्लॉक हील या वेज हील वाले जूते पहनें। इससे पैर दर्द को रोका जा सकता है|
- घास में और सार्वजनिक स्नान क्षेत्रों (कम्यूनल बाथिंग एरिया) में नंगे पैर जाने से बचें क्योंकि इससे पैरों के द्वारा कीटाणु शरीर में प्रवेश कर सकते हैं जिससे फंगल इन्फेक्शन हो सकता है|
With some regular care and good foot hygiene, it’s possible to keep your feet in good running condition. We advocate medical supervision before beginning any treatment regime.
