Just because your feet are at the very bottom of your body doesn't mean they can be overlooked. You should take the time to inspect and care for your and your family's feet by keeping feet clean, wearing arch support shoes or insoles and buying shoes that are the correct size and width.

In lieu of Foot Health Awareness Month, we have listed some of the most common foot problems that when go untreated, can create severe pain, discomfort or embarrassment. If you or a family member has one or more of the below foot conditions, you can find treatment products at HealthyFeetStore.com.

Bunions- Bunions are bony humps that form at the base of the big toe as a result of the big toe being angled towards the other toes for extended periods of time. The toe joint becomes swollen and inflamed and any movement of the foot can be very painful. Bunions are usually caused by wearing shoes with too narrow toe boxes. To relieve bunion pain, protect and shield the bunion with our Heaven 4 Toes Bunion Cushion or a bunion cushioning gel sleeve. We also sell shoes that have wide toe boxes to accommodate bunions.

Athlete's Foot- This well-known foot condition is a skin infection caused by a fungus. Symptoms include dry skin, itching, scaling, blisters and cracked skin. Keeping your feet clean, dry and protection a daily basis will reduce your chances of getting athlete's foot. To treat athlete's foot, use quality anti-fungal soap such as Pedifix Tea Tree Oil Antifungal Foot Soap and Tripod Athlete's Foot Cream with Tineacide Shoe Spray, to help keep your feet clean. Wear shoes and socks that wick moisture to keep your feet dry and use shoe inserts by Woodlore or Stuffits to prevent moisture build-up in your shoes after wear.

Calluses and Corns- Callusesare created when the foot is continuously rubbed due to ill-fitting shoes or poor quality shoes. 

The latest shoe trend proves that the Romans had something right. Gladiator sandals are taking over shoe stores by storm. No matter where you go, you see at least one person wearing this long-lived sandal. But who can blame the gladiator sandal fans? The strappy, open design will keep your feet secure yet cool in these upcoming Spring and Summer months.

Gladiator sandals are characterized with a T-strap design that consists of a primary vertical strap with multiple straps adjoining it at a perpendicular angle. Ankle straps are also a key component that completes the gladiator sandal design. (A sandal could pass off as having a gladiator-inspired design if it has a backstrap, but the traditional and fashionable gladiator sandals have ankle straps.) Sometimes the sandal will have a covered heel for additional comfort. Decorations on the women's gladiator sandals uppers include studs, buckles or metal ornaments for a more rustic, Roman look.

Most gladiator sandals you'll find in department stores aren't made with comfort and support in mind. The gladiator sandals on healthyfeetstore.com have arch support, heel cups, soft uppers and cushioned footbeds to ensure serenity when wearing them.
