Many people like to soak their feet with hot water, because it can promote blood circulation, eliminate fatigue, improve sleep and relieve headache symptoms, but the water temperature should be controlled well, not too low or too high. Health experts believe that it is appropriate to control the temperature of soaking feet at around 40℃.

When soaking feet, if the water temperature is too low, the effect of soaking feet will not be achieved. If the water temperature is too high, it will easily lead to excessive expansion of blood vessels in both feet. Excessive expansion of blood vessels will make a lot of blood flow to the lower limbs, resulting in insufficient blood supply to important organs such as heart, brain and kidney. Especially for friends with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, it is tantamount to adding insult to injury.

In addition, if the water temperature is too high, it is easy to destroy the sebum film on the skin surface of the foot, making the foot easy to dry or even chapped.

Detailed reminder

Some people like to wash their feet with hot water after their feet are badly frozen. This is inappropriate. Because the skin and slave meat on the feet are stiff at this time, the tolerance is lower than normal. In the case of sudden heating, the skin and slave meat can't bear the large temperature difference, and will peel off from the meat and bones in severe cases. The correct way is to rub your hands moderately first, and then slowly let your feet heat up before washing.
