Because while dancing, the new ones are stiff and cause discomfort to the feet, which increases the chance of blisters on the feet.

If there are already blisters, it is said that putting blister tape will not put pressure on them. Experts say that due to this, there is a risk of infection in that part.

It is said that they can avoid pain.

Not only during dancing.. Even after the event, experts want to focus on foot care. Only then can you protect the health of the feet and the skin there.
⚛ First wash the feet with warm water and soap. This will remove the dust. After applying a moisturizer, experts say that the skin there should not dry out.
⚛ Add a little Epsom salt in warm water and let the feet soak in this water for a quarter of an hour. Experts say that the dust and dirt accumulated on the skin of the feet will be removed and the pains and swelling will be removed. Experts say that placing a pillow under the feet of such people while sleeping will help.
