hi everyone ive been having a terible time with blue toes and big toes like going septic at the ends and blue since my knee operation (which i might add was better before they whent in their)

and quite by chance i whent in to the chemist whilst up at the caravan cos it was driving me mad walking on them thought the ends where going to burst open.

well i bought some SAVLON to try

washed me feet beforehand and put on and in 3 days touch wood they have started to get a bit better.

i also put e45 on the hard bits on the bottom of the feet

just thought i would put this up on here for anyone else who has it .

IVE TRIED ALL SORTS OF STUFF BUT THIS SEEM TO HAVE EASED EVERYTHING OFF A BIT TOUCH WOOD i will say that again touch wood

regards john

well you saw the pics on my face book it just carmed them down on the big toes quite a bit im only 5 days in with this stuff and realy didnt think it would work at all as the ends where bloody sore and looked horrible it was frightening and you need your big toes for ballance more than anything cos thats where the information comes from in walking corectly

hense the saying walking HEEL TOE HEEL TOE.

i was doing heel any bloody thing that landed next cos they where so sore lol

2 hrs and feet still feel warm now what going on here will this last all day or not watch this space.

and dont forget to wash feet before you put it on and must have clean socks on if you do

and wash in between toes.

John I assume you've been tested for gout? I ask because my dad had feet as you describe yours and he had severe gout. Good luck with your savlon concoction. Tilda x

get up in a morning no stifness then by 3 hrs sores start to appear

but its better than sitting in a launderette.

have a good one tilda hope weather up their is better than down here when i whent for a trot round the block

Hi John,

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a go. My feet have been a bit sore lately too. I think it's because I've been neglecting to moisturise them and I can't find a pumice stone for love nor money at the moment so the heels have split. I was going to smother them with sudocreme today to see if that helps.

Take care

Judy
