Changes in your feet’s appearance may indicate health problems

If you’re not paying enough attention to your feet, then you probably need to give it more consideration as it can give clues about your health.

Jake Heath, a podiatrist at One Wellness Clinic in Wimpole Street, London, told Mirror UK that noticeable changes in one of the most ignored parts of our body can be indicators of wider health problems.

By taking a closer look at your feet, you can actually determine if you’re suffering from diabetes, gout, psoriasis, or even vascular disease.

Changes in the color and shape of your nails can indicate a lung, cardiovascular or even gastrointestinal problem.

“The shape will change and they appear distorted. This could be due to a cut in the blood’s oxygen levels,” Heath explained.
