I think it is healthy to soak your foot in hot water before you go to bed, especially after hard work or exercise. It can make you relax and comfortable. Sometimes it also can relief pain of long foot journey or hurt. Do you like to do it?

Hi kevinll.. How are you...? You are very correct...soaking our foot in hot water is good for health..it cures the leg pain due to long strain..like more walking, running, playing..etc.. More over by soaking our foot in hot water in the night before going to bed, we will get good sleep and more relaxation.. Though I am not regularly doing this, whenever I feel pain etc in the leg, I do do it and I get relief.. One thing what we should see is that the water should not be more hot.. but it should be in normal hot. WITH BEST WISHES.

I soak my feet sometimes when they're tired or achy and it really helps. When I had an infected toenail, my podiatrist told me to soak my foot/toe in a couple of quarts of warm water with a quarter cup of white vinegar added and it really helped the pain, so that's what I do now. It softens the skin, too.

I think this is a good practice. I haven't tried doing it yet but I think it's really beneficial for people who actually do it. I think it's also a way of ridding the smell in ones feet

Yes, you are right. Soak the foot in hot water really help for health and relaxation. It can also reduce daily foot sweating and smelly foot too. Normally I only do it when I have enough time for that, but it really make feel better when I have walked for a long period.
