Dog days are the hottest period in summer, which can easily make people feel hot and humid. Soaking feet is a good way to relieve dry heat and remove moisture, but it is necessary to select suitable materials for soaking feet.
Here are some suggestions on how to soak your feet to remove moisture in dog days:
1. Salt water soaking feet: put an appropriate amount of salt into warm water and soak feet for about 20 minutes. Saline water has a good dehumidification effect, which can alleviate foot edema and fatigue.
2. Herbal foot soaking: put appropriate amount of wormwood, chrysanthemum, osmanthus, tea and other herbs into hot water and soak feet for about 20 minutes. These herbs have good effects of clearing away heat, detoxifying and removing moisture, and can alleviate the symptoms of dry heat and heavy moisture.
3. Soak ginger feet: put appropriate ginger slices into warm water and soak the feet for about 20 minutes. Ginger has a good function of dispersing cold and removing moisture, and can alleviate the symptoms of cold feet and heavy moisture.
4. Soak feet in vinegar: put proper amount of vinegar into warm water and soak feet for about 20 minutes. Vinegar has a good role in removing dampness and odor, and can alleviate the problem of heavy moisture and odor in feet.
It should be noted that proper water temperature and soaking time should be selected when soaking feet to avoid overheating or too long soaking feet causing discomfort. At the same time, people with special diseases or skin sensitivities should soak their feet under the guidance of doctors.
