Guest guest Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I know soaking them in tea is good for foot odor, maybe it would help your problem. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 In particular Ribofalvin Vitamin B2 can help this; also Vitamin B12 can help this. You can try a Vitamin B-complex; if already taking; add a single B2 @ tiveAnswers , " Deborah " <gubertush wrote: > > hey everyone, > since the weather has started getting warmer, i find that if my feet > get too hot (with socks, or under my blanket) they start to itch like > CRAZY !!!! > > i would assume its athletes foot - but they dont itch unless they > become hot.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Hey Deb, Try soaking your feet in some Borax & water. My partner's feet drive him crazy & he usually puts a teaspoon in his runners about once a month & it really helps.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Hi Deb, I live in a warm weather climate and used to have that same problem. Here's my best advice: If you think your problem is due to dry skin, I highly recommend buying a low cost parrafin wax dip machine like they use in day spas - dip your feet in the warm (not hot) wax and then remove them. Do this while sitting in a chair. Hold out your feet for about 30 seconds until the wax hardens. Place plastic bags over your feet if you have to walk around and can't sit in the chair with your feet sticking out for an hour, or put plastic bags on before going to bed. After an hour, or overnight, remove the bags and wax (it will just peel right off easily) and your feet will be EXTREMELY SOFT AND COMFORTABLE! I bought my parrafin dip machine at a local department store on sale for $25. They normally retail for $40-$80. Wax bricks (refills) can be pricey too: About $5-$10 each. If you think your problem is due to athlete's foot, then I recommend buying a cream with clotrimazole in it, sold as " athlete's foot cream " (or foot spray of the same type), and apply it generously and as often as you can throughout the day, or at least before bed so it has time to go to work on your foot/feet. Use the cream or spray for about a week and follow up with a good foot cream that contains alpha-hydroxy acids in it which will prevent foot fungus such as the one that causes athlete's foot from reforming in the future. So far, the best foot cream I have found is one that I sell on my web site. It has AHA and softens feet beautifully. Everyone is always complimenting me on how great my feet and heels look. I can't help but tell them it is because of my herbal foot cream. Take a look at it; I highly recommend it! http://www.annshrader.myarbonne.com <http://www.annshrader.myarbonne.com/> Take care, I hope this has helped Ann. , " Anne " <annroc2004 wrote: > > In particular Ribofalvin Vitamin B2 can help this; also Vitamin B12 can > help this. > > You can try a Vitamin B-complex; if already taking; add a single B2 @ > tiveAnswers , " Deborah " gubertush@ wrote: > > > > hey everyone, > > since the weather has started getting warmer, i find that if my feet > > get too hot (with socks, or under my blanket) they start to itch like > > CRAZY !!!! > > > > i would assume its athletes foot - but they dont itch unless they > > become hot.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 In my experience itchy feet can be a sign of a toxic liver. So any measure taken to look after your liver might help. And if it doesn't help---well, the side effect is a clean liver and that never hurts. Where do you live? If it is dandelion season where you are, and you have access to clean plants, make some salads, dig some roots or nibble some flower stems. A great liver herb. We are having the coldest most miserable April ever, and I am still waiting for the last of the weekend snow to go so I can dig roots, ARRGHH! Anyway, there are lots of good liver herbs out there. Food-wise, the liver thrives on lightly steamed greens. Enzymes, taken with meals and in between, are good for the liver too. Hope you stop itching soon, itch can be worse than pain.
