SEC-S13/W3 | Bare Feet 🐾

Welcome to my page everyone. I will be sharing my views on the topic of bare feet in relation to health as presented by the community. Our feet are usually an essential body part and should be treated the same. The importance of having complete feet is the beginning of more beauty. Our female gender can relate well to this.

The female gender seems to have more health control on the feet health since their fashion also gets down there. You know anything that beautifies us is well taken care of. No one wants unhealthy feet or feet that are lost out of carelessness. We all know the difficulty this may come with.

Do you like walking barefoot? Explain your reasons.

In my home, we have a culture of wearing apartment slippers that help give the feet first-level protection against home hazards. This has been our norm here for a while as even the children would have to wear theirs as well. The primary reason is the need to always protect the feet from harm. We cannot be too sure of the harmful little objects on the floor that may hurt the feet.

I have always followed up on my kids too who at most times would want to go barefoot no matter how they are corrected on the need for wearing slippers. Another second reason for this effect is the need to avoid parasitic infections by using barefoot. There may be little cuts on the leg that through them, infections may occur. So to prevent any form of infection, there's always a need to give the feet protection.

How important is taking care of your feet?

It is important that we take care of the feet. It is as important just like the way we also take of the face or other parts of the body. All parts of the body are important just as the feet. When they are harmed, they make us uncomfortable. Therefore, we really need to take care of the feet very well. The need to take care of the feet should be really emphasized for the male gender because it is observed that they pay less attention to their feet' health.

The women whose fashion lifestyle is taken to virtually all parts of the body are more sensitive to our feet' health. Due to this, we go for more pedicures most times we are having our manicures. So, the feet are also important. This is one place we observed everyone to see how neat they were.

What do you think of the saying “Don't walk barefoot, parasites can get in”?

This is very true and for people living on this side of the world (Tropical areas), we need to pay more attention to this statement. The environment is either dusty or muddy which makes it a little risky for us. the animal dumping and parasitic load that must have built up over time make it a dangerous terrain for us. This is why the issues of tetanus and other foot diseases are easily on the high due to our environmental makeup.

The use of footwear has been a saving grace for the feet. One would wonder what the feet would have looked like if there were no footwear to help protect the feet for us.

What do you think of a world without shoes?

A world without shoes is a world with people with damaged feet. Just imagine a view of people all walking down the road with footwear and how that would be especially in regions where the temperature is scorching. They would be as good as badly damaged due to the scorching heat of the ground.

Not just that alone, we will also see cases of frequent cuts on the leg. The shoes help to give us the required protection we desire. Even when we mistakenly hit our legs on stones or objects, the shoes help to give us some level of protection so even when there are injuries, it will be less.

I would like to invite @dar22, @chukwu10, and @hisgenral to this contest.
