6) Learn to cut your nails correctly! The best time to trim toenails is after bathing. The nails are softer and easier to trim at that time. Cut your toenails straight across and not too short. Do not cut into the corners of your nails. Be careful not to leave any sharp corners that could cut the next toe. Consult a doctor if your nails are too thick and difficult to cut.



7) Have any corns, calluses, bunions, warts etc., treated by a doctor. Do not use chemical agents for the removal of corns and calluses. Do not use strong antiseptic solutions on your feet. Do not use adhesive tape on your feet.


Don't try any home remedies!
