It seems difficult for us to keep our feet clean is very difficult especially in India for ladies who do not traditionally do not wear shoes but wear open chappals, with their saris. It is very difficult for us to keep our feet clean especially during the monsoons, when the state of our roads in cities is terrible! The 'water' that flows on them contains spit and other human and non-human excreta. Yet, most ladies usually continue to wear their thin chappals.

Some simple tips of foot care can still be followed in this case.
1. Inspect your feet everyday (if difficult, use a mirror),
2. Report: hard skin, corns, breaks in the skin, infection, colour changes, ulcers,

6. Avoid washing your feet with hot water,
7. Never walk bare foor,
