2.Inspect Your Feet Daily
Your feet do a lot for you, so give a little back. Look them over twice a day, checking for cuts, cracks, calluses, sores, bunions, blisters, ingrown toenails or redness — and check between toes, too. Use a mirror to help if bending is difficult. See a problem? Talk to your doctor right away.
