I just came from walking in the park. It was a small hike as hikes go, but somehow today my feet really hurt.
Maybe my shoes were not the most appropriate for walking for a long time.
THe fact is that my feet hurt and I really want to make them all better LOL of course:)
I just got them in water with some salt, it usually works but this time it didn't work that well.
So what do you do when your feet ache?

regular cooking salt with warm water is the best....baking soda is good to....just soak you feet for about 15 minutes...:)

When I had to stand 8 hours doing laundry work in the night shift..I came home and my feet ached .. I found that once I soaked them in a hot container with epsom salt I was immediately relieve..I think the epsom salt pulls out that throbbing aching pains..
Each time I did this it immediately relieved my pain;)+

I would roll them on a cold can or bottle. I keep bottles of water frozen just for this. I use then a menthol or peppermint rub, as it smells fresh, feels cool, and seems to help the pain. If I had time I would lay with my feet and legs up at a 90 degree angle, against a wall for about ten minutes. I hope that some of this is soothing and that you feel recovered soon.
