How can I stop getting blisters on my feet????

Question

I walk about 4 miles a day and I come home with huge blisters! I have tried all kinds of shoes. I don't know what to do but it hurts!!!

Thank you.

I walk so much because it's good for me, other than my poor feet. I think it might be socks because my shoes DO fit.

Answer 1

Wear thick socks to protect your feet from rubbing against your shoes. Also, make sure your shoes are fitted correctly--you may even want to go somewhere where they will measure your feet. If you can afford it, you might even need special inserts. Also, there are a lot of good off-the-shelf shoe inserts that can pad your feet. Finally, don't walk so much every day until the blisters heal--they need to fully heal or you can just continue to irritate the skin.

I would recommend wearing two thin pairs of socks. This way the socks rub against each other instead of against your foot. As to already having blisters, if you go to the pharmacy and look for some thing called second skin or new skin it will help heal your blisters plus give you extra cushioning with a gel substance to prevent further damage so you can continue to enjoy your sport of choice. I went through this one summer at basketball camp. This was how they fixed my feet up and I've used it ever since! Good luck!

wear thicker brands of socks. I got blisters on both heels of my feet when I ran away from the cops, but I wasnt wearing any socks and my shoes were a lil bit too big cuz i dont tie my laces. So i would problably try new pairs of socks. Shoes dont always have every thing to do with it. I hope this helps you. I dont know everything so i cant say that it will help you or not, but its always worth a try.

If it is always in the same spot try using a product know as mole skin...it is not really mole skin though. Cut a hole where you get blisters and put it on the spot that troubles you. Otherwise I would suggest walking differently like on the balls of your feet or more on the heels depending on the problem areas. I get blisters all the time but would pop them with a needle and clean them out until a hard callous developed.

Answer 7

How are your socks? I usually have this problem when I wear socks that don't fit properly. You don't want your feet to shift or move too much in your shoe this will definitely cause blisters. Try soaking your feet in warm water with a foot soak(found in any drug store) this will help the pain.

Answer 8

Yes, since you walk so much make sure you have comfortable walking shoes.....wear socks to absorb sweat and to stop your skin from rubbing on the shoe.......causing blisters. You can also try the foot powder.

u should do the following
1)wear sandals or comfortable flip flops.any thing open with no straps.straps chaff ur skin
2)if u want to wear shoes then wear socks.u can put two pairs of thick socks simultaneously.but u will need loose shoes.
3)u can pad ur shoes with thick layers of cotton.it really helps.
4)apply Vaseline on the blisters after a good soak in hot water and wear socks to bed.remember to do this before bed.add salt and shampoo in the hot water.salt will soften ur feet

Answer 10

Makes sure you wear good socks and that your shoes fit properly. Blisters are caused by friction. The more your shoes are lose on your feet, the more likely they are to cause blisters.

Until they heal, don't pop them and apply band aids.
