Presumably, everyone has heard of the words "people's old feet first decline", because the human foot part is covered with multiple meridians, and it is also a reflex area of flatulence such as heart, lungs, spleen and stomach, so the performance of the feet can also reflect the aging condition of the body.
Especially in the recent period of time, the following 7 changes have inexplicably appeared in the feet, which are also warning us that the human body is about to enter an aging state, and I hope that everyone will pay attention to the measures to deal with it.
1. Dry skin
In the autumn and winter, the moisture content in the air is less, and if there is no best hydration measure, the skin will indeed show dryness;
But it does not last for a long time, but if the amount of water is sufficient, but the skin of the foot becomes very dry, and there are manifestations of peeling and even cracking, it is also indicating that the human body is about to age.
Because the collagen content in the skin is more when you are young, and there is less collagen in the pre-aging stage, the skin will have a dry problem.
2. Bent toes
Some people like to wear high heels in daily life, which will affect the shape of the feet in the long run, especially after entering the old age stage, most women tend to have small toes bent, this problem is also known as mallet toes.
Not only that, after the toes are bent, they will rub against the shoes during walking, and then grow calluses.
3. Flat instep
Because after entering the aging stage, the ligaments on the sole of the feet will be stretched, so the instep of the foot will have a flat performance, and this problem occurs, it is easier to lose balance when walking, and even cause ankle sprains.
4. Fat thinning
Relevant survey data show that compared to young people, the fat of the feet of the elderly is indeed much thinner, mainly because the soles of the feet themselves are composed of adipose tissue, elastin and collagen.
However, with the continuous growth of age, collagen is gradually lost, so the fat pad will become thinner, and with this performance, the foot support slowly weakens, if the amount of exercise on weekdays is relatively large, the elderly will feel sore at night.
5. Increased wounds
If you want to know whether you have entered the aging state, the performance of the feet can also give answers, especially if you have a wound inexplicably, and you can't heal for a long time, it is likely that aging causes venous disease or diabetes, which eventually leads to slowing down blood circulation in both feet.
6. Joint pain
There are more than thirty joints in people's feet, and after entering the old age stage, the function will inevitably deteriorate, especially in the case of not paying attention to calcium supplementation, it is more likely to appear osteoporosis or arthritis, resulting in stiff and painful feelings in the toe joints.
7. The flexibility becomes worse
Because the water content of the tendons of the foot decreases after entering the old age stage, the elderly will be stiff and less flexible than before when exercising.
All in all, if you want to know whether the human body has entered an aging state, you can pay more attention to the performance of your feet;
If there are several abnormalities such as pain, increased wounds, thinning fat, dry skin and other abnormalities mentioned above in the near future, it means that the human body is gradually aging.
In this case, we should take targeted protective measures, such as soaking your feet with warm water every day before going to bed, especially ginger or tangerine peel water, which can help stimulate capillaries, improve blood circulation and metabolism.
