First of all, soaking your feet is a very good way to keep healthy in winter. It can be said that soaking your feet in water at an appropriate temperature can not only promote blood circulation in the feet and reduce local muscle tension, but also is very helpful in eliminating fatigue and improving sleep. However, in real life, there are always some people who are accustomed to soaking their feet until their feet turn red, and they think that the higher the water temperature, the better the effect. Actually, it is not. In fact, the water for foot soaking should not be too hot, around 40℃ is appropriate. This is because the water temperature is too high, and the blood vessels in the feet are prone to excessive dilation, causing more blood in the human body to flow to the lower limbs, which can easily cause insufficient blood supply to important organs such as the heart, brain, and kidneys. This is especially bad for people with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, as it is like adding insult to injury. In addition, if the water temperature is too high, it will easily damage the sebum film on the surface of the foot skin, causing the stratum corneum to dry out or even crack.

Of course, in addition to normal people, some patients should be more careful when soaking their feet, especially diabetic patients. Because this type of patients are prone to peripheral neuropathy, which makes the peripheral nerves unable to sense the external temperature normally, they cannot feel it even if the water temperature is very high and are easily scalded. In addition to the water temperature, you should also pay attention to not soaking your feet for too long, about 15 to 20 minutes.

30 minutes is appropriate.

Soaking your feet in warm water is a very good health care method. If conditions permit, soaking your feet in vinegar is much more effective than warm water.

Experts point out that soaking your feet in vinegar is a "good medicine" for refreshing the mind. If you add some vinegar to warm water and soak your feet in it before going to bed every day, it can help strengthen your body, treat sleep disorders, and eliminate fatigue, which is very beneficial to your body.

Especially in the cold winter, many people will find that their feet have never been warm at all. In fact, this is related to their physical conditions.
