My feet ache - what can I do?!

Question: I worked 8 hours today (standing up for 7 hours and 50 minutes), and have to do the same for the next two days.

I don't have a foot spa, how can I make them rejuvenated for tomorrow?

You need someone to rub your feet

Call your f buddy.

That's FOOT buddy

Put them to bed.

i would be glad to rub them for you

soak them in a bowl instead...use lots of cooling moisturiser.

suck em...
hot bath...good rub...

take a hot bath, it helps your feet and other parts of your body ache less

stop walking on them.....

get mousturiser and just give them a wee massage to loosen up the muscles, thats what i do - works a charm :)

invest money in a good pair of shoes. happy feet equal a happy body.

The question should be what can 'I' do ;-)

u can buy one of those foot machigers or a heating mat.....
and rest ur feet tonight....

soak them in ice water or very hot water. whichever sounds more appealing to you, I'd go for the iced though..

Lay or sit with your feet elevated. If you have someone to massage them then do that.

for today i would just relax. stay off your feet. take an aleeve ( alleve helps with muscles and aching more then advil) if it really hurts bad.

for the future i would invest in some gel shoe insoles if your going to be constantly standing. that should help lessen your foot ache

soak them in a large bowl/basin of hot water [as hot as you can stand] and add about 1/2 cup of Epsom Salt....it's an old remedy but it works. Leave in until the water is cooled off.

take a hot bath with sea salt then elivate

I have used Aloe foot lotion, it really soothes the feet and refreshes them, also, if you don't have a foot spa, just get a big bucket (one both your feet can fit in) and fill it with warm-hot water and some salt (for foot spas) and soak your feet for 20-30 minutes, then do the aloe lotion, I bet your feet will feel refreshed and healthy again.

1 cup epsom salts and hot water if just soaking feet in a small tub, for a whole body soak that will relax muscles and make you feel renewed try 2 cups in a hot bath you can also add bubble bath to the bath

Cant help ya for tmorrow but if you give em a good soak and then rub in peppermint oil they'll feel like heaven.

Lie down next to a wall, on something soft. Stretch your legs out vertically -up against the wall- as far as is comfortable. Stay there for a while, focusing on deep breathing.

It helps the circulation in your feet a lot. Soaking your feet in epsom salts will probably also help.

nice cold soak in a bucket lol i love it

Find a small ball(squash ball size)and roll your foot backwards and forwards over it gently Orgasmic results

Float?

try massaging them,it may work!

You may be getting a form of arthritis called hallux rigidus. You should check with your GP and, if so, he will probably prescribe Celebrex, a painkiller especially for arthritis.
