Winter can be a cozy season—fireplaces, warm socks, and hot drinks—but it can also be one of the toughest times of year for your feet. Cold temperatures, dry air, heavy footwear, and reduced circulation all combine to create the perfect environment for foot discomfort, cracked skin, fungal infections, and worsening chronic conditions. Taking proactive steps during the winter months can help keep your feet comfortable, functional, and healthy until spring arrives.
