Strange but true, there are more sweat glands per inch of our feet than anywhere else in the body. Sweating is perfectly natural and provided good foot hygiene is maintained then even the wettest foot will present fewer problems. Increased temperatures around the foot either through exercise of environmental causes, increase the rate of perspiration. The absence of aeration and build up of fluid within the skin tissues may cause deterioration especially in the presence of certain bacteria. See similar questions...

A:Sore feet are generally caused by an abnormal foot structure. The foot normally elongates upon weight-bearing causing the muscles on the bottom of the foot to receive a great amount of stress which causes tired burning feet. I explained to patients, this is similar to a patient carrying around 150 lb. dumbbell all day and how the muscles in their arms would feel at the end of the day. Sometimes sore feet are just caused by shoes that are too tight. See similar questions...

There are two types of burning feet, those which feel like they are burning, but are not actually hot, and those which are actually increased in temperature. Anything which increases the flow of blood to the feet will warm them. This may result from exercise, alcohol consumption, some vascular disorders, inflammation, and infection. Anything which insulates the foot can reduced heat loss and increase the temperature of the feet, for example socks, stockings and shoes. See similar questions...

Walk barefoot. Walk barefoot some more. Go barefoot everywhere you can. Your soles, foot muscles, ligaments, and tendons are like any other parts of your body: you have to use them to develop them, otherwise they will atrophy. Note that you wouldn't need to build up your feet if you went barefoot from birth as nature intended. What you're actually doing by "building them up" is getting them back to their natural state.

Ah, a major debate. Is it the bike or is it the person. Chances are, it's more of a personal issue than it is with the bike. We all know upright road cyclists with the same ailment after all. First, we want to point out that Bacchetta did not invent the High Racer; rather we are the company who made this design accessible and innovative. If you look at all other High Racers out there, you'll see a common theme of Superman handlebars, 650c wheels and in some cases even monotube frames. See similar questions...
