Soaking feet is a well-known health rule, especially for many elderly people, who like to soak their feet before going to bed every day. Various foot baths have also become popular gifts for Father's Day and Mother's Day. It's cold in autumn and winter, so it's comfortable to take a hot bath and sleep. Ma Baobao's father is afraid that the baby will catch cold and will soak his feet. He thinks that keeping warm has a certain health-keeping effect. As everyone knows, this has great health risks. Soaking feet with hot water is a good way for adults to stay healthy and relaxed. Some people may also use it on children. But in fact, often soaking children's feet with hot water is not conducive to their arch development.

The first injury that children will bring when they soak their feet is scalding. Experts believe that the water temperature that adults can feel is different from the water temperature that children feel. Perhaps parents think that foot bath water is not hot, but for children, it has reached a hot level. At this time, if the child is forced to continue to soak his feet, it will lead to skin burns.

In addition, children soaking their feet may also lead to foot deformation. This is because the child's arch is not fully developed, and the bones and joints are very elastic. If children are often allowed to soak their feet in early childhood, hot water will loosen the ligaments of their feet, which is not conducive to the development of the arch of their feet.

It is much better for children to soak their feet in warm water than in hot water, but it is not recommended for children to soak their feet often, because children are more active, and even in winter, the yang is quite sufficient. Often soaking their feet will cause imbalance between yin and yang, leading to excessive heat in the body.

In addition, some adults often suffer from diseases caused by fungal infections such as tinea pedis and beriberi. This situation must not be soaked with children, otherwise it is easy to infect children.
