Do you guys take care of your feet?

Well, I'm sure we all hurt out feet by pllaying ddr, callouses and such. So do any of you ever go and get pedicures and stuff like that to keep your feet in tip top shape?

I do, ddr has really made my feet get messed up, but pedicures help! who gets them?!

I'd like to get a pedicure, but that costs money. every once in a while when my feet hurt, though, I'll soak my feet in epsom salts.

Hmmmmmmmmm well being in Martial Arts and Sk8boarding I do actually take good care of my feet. Honestly when it comes to my oral, dental and physical hygene i'm usually a perfectionist.

1)Ice my foot after a sk8ing and DDR Session.
2)Remain standing after a hard and tedious round. Letting the blood flow normally.
3)Keep it raised when I get home a la foot stool
4)Keep activity minimal.
5)Do something with your hands. (Tekken 4)

That's how I keep my feet nice and healthy

Well, when my feet hurt, I rest, soak them in epsom salt, and/or massage them. After playing DDR, I usually rest anyways. Other than that, I just let my feet do whatever, just like when I get done with Pointe class!

I just clean them and occasionally bandage them if the broken toe nail is broken most of the way off... ow...

And once I played DDR with a broken toe... yeah, it did hurt a lot.

Sometimes when I play in socks that are too thin, that really thin top layer of skin peels a little. That fixes itself in less than a week, though, so no worries.

Well, looking at my feet now.. they're gross, dry, and scaly. I have unkempt toenails, and blisters on the ends of my toenails because my shoes are teh sux0r. My right ankle is sprained, and I have a pulled muscle in my right leg.

does that answer your question?

Acctually im an idiot i play even with hurt feet, its dumb and i acctually had to go to the doctors because they were so bad, and being the genius i am im close to doing it to my feet again, and i most likely will do it again. So to answer no i do not take care of my feet and belive me i regret it whenever i see my feet.

Hmmmmmmm also, it's nice around the females due the fact that most of them like clean feet. Ironically, most of the time their feet is dirty due to walking around in sandals having the dirt allocate amongst their feet and nails.

Also, keeping your feet healthy some how rises your self esteem level. Psychologically speaking, knowing that you are a clean person in general raises your self esteem. Strange I believe..

Man, you guys must have weak ass feet or something. I have never had to ice them or anything. They hurt a little bit sometimes. But not enough to require attention. You guys need to learn how to flow like the water...

After ddr my feet hurt a lot, but I just sleep 12-15 hours and they'll usually be better the next day. As for blisters, I don't have any, despite how much I play ddr.

Meh, My feet were really really nice looking before I started playing DDR (Errrr...what? they were) now they look a little more "rugged" but still not really anything bad...nor do they ever hurt
