Warm feet at last

Bones, joints and muscles

Hi everyone.

Like others I have suffred with cold feet. So I thought of how I could help with the blood circulation and stop them feeling cold.. I bought  a very large plastic storage box. Wider than it is high. Other 1/2 filled it with hot water and a little bubble bath and wow the diffewrence is amazing. It has been 3 hours since I soaked my feet and ankles and they are still nice and warm even without socks on. Just thought I would pass on my idea.

I've had this problem since nerve damage caused by first op 8 years ago.

My foot actually turns black in the shower.

I've tried everything. The only thing that helps me is to wear thermal socks and sheepskin house boots by Celtic. Even in summer.

Hi Mic

Tried that and it didn't work.

Have a nice weekend yourself.

Hi Egarling

That sounds aweful. I am sorry that happened to you.

I was wearing thermal socks before I tried this.

Today I the U.S. I saw Commercial on a new product. ", car cane"., it's has a handle and about 6_8, inches when the car door is opened this car cane fits into the latch on the door frame. Then you can put your hand on it and you then could easily push yourself up and out the car.xxxxc

Hi renee.

Do you not have anyone that could possibly help you ?

That t might be of help to some. But don't you have to keep your knees together and swivel to get in and out of a car ?

good morning hailea ... I hope your feet were still nice and warm during the night ..

I live alone, all by myself, doing everything my self ... sad isn't it .... no, I am kidding - it is not that bad - well, it is, but then we enter a totally different discussion 

as or the swiveling to get in and out of the car, yes, that is important especially in the beginning ... someone on this forum mentioned to think way back when we girls were wearing mini skorts and kept knees together to get up etc.  brilliant suggestion ... but that cane sounds great - It is easy to hold on to the car door and that is not good - so the cane will support you ... I have a small, low seat Fiat - coming from  the US where I had a bigger, automatic car, this one is mighty challenging ....

anyway, have a great day - warm hug

Good Morning Renee

Yes my feet were still nice and warm all night thank you.

I sometimes feel as if I live alone any way. So I sort of know what you mean.

As for swiveling oh yes the mini skirt & you are right the cane idea is a good one. Not good to hang onto car doors.
