Maybe it's only you who have let their feet go to pot.

GDG · 27/02/2006 12:25

No, my feet are crap - what the devil is flexitol!?!?

NomDePlume · 27/02/2006 12:26

it's some foot cream with pee in it. They sell it at my local community centre, which is a little odd.

My feet are immaculate

LadyTophamHatt · 27/02/2006 15:07

signing in.

actually mine aren't too bad ATM.

expatinscotland · 27/02/2006 15:07

yuk! if the flexitol is too strong, try it once a day or rub it in and then apply a layer of vaseline over that and slip on some cotton socks.

bossykate · 27/02/2006 15:09

ok, where can you get flexitol?

Sonnet · 27/02/2006 15:10

flexitol it is then, I'll pop into boots on my way home. I somehow don't think it will be too strong for me Expatin scotland (wish it was!)

Littlefish · 27/02/2006 15:11

Here I am! Feet are worse than usual at the moment! Just started a new job and am on my feet all day again. Where can I buy Flexitol?

Sonnet · 27/02/2006 15:15

Littlefish - they sell it at my local boots...

Yorkiegirl · 27/02/2006 15:19

you can get flexitol in boots as mentioned, and also in most chemists.
Mine are ok atm, but as soon as I forget flexitol for a couple of days they start to get dry and minging again

JackieNo · 27/02/2006 15:26

If your hooves really are horned, you could visit a Scholl chiropodist, where they can take the hard skin off with a scalpelShock. Then they get at it with the power sander thingy. That's what I have done (as well as other, more painful bitsSad)- but my feet are lovely and smooth afterwardsSmile.

JonesTheSteam · 27/02/2006 16:38

Can I join as well - haven't got Flexitol - but have recently purchased some foot scrub and deep moisturising cream with my Boots Advantage card points.

JackieNo - A friend of mine had a School pedicure last summer - her feet looked bl**dy fantastic afterwards - I was very Envy!!!!!

janinlondon · 27/02/2006 16:55

Need to get the flexitol out of the drawer again actually - good that this reminded me.

cod · 27/02/2006 18:47

agree re. scholl ofr a good de scale ( oyu ffeel like all your shoes are too big after) but if you think you ahev a verruca or problmes then goto a chiropodist for a general sort out

mine is so nice

Smurfgirl · 27/02/2006 18:57

My feet are minging, absolutely disgusting. Need to see a chiropodist desperately, am currently on the waiting list, nothing shifts the tough dead skin its soo thick.

[vomits]

I am a minger. (i also have something wrong with my pelvis that makes me walk weird and put too much pressure on my feet but minger all the same)

cod · 27/02/2006 18:58

OP posts:
cod · 27/02/2006 18:58

OP posts:
Blondeinlondon · 27/02/2006 18:59

cod · 27/02/2006 19:00

OP posts:
Smurfgirl · 27/02/2006 19:01

cod i am a v.poor student the cost of a chiropodist is like half my months wages, and i need loads of extra stuff to go with it tp solve the issue, my dad thinks i am covered by his Bupa (why?) so if i am i shall be going private

hate my feet very depressed about them

I do scrub them etc but it does nothing

[vomits some more]

cod · 27/02/2006 19:02

i know
wonder if your local college or uni do a chirop cousrse then>>>

then they may do you cheaper

OP posts:
Smurfgirl · 27/02/2006 19:05

hmmm maybe, am quite desperate, list in hull is 18mths, but i need insoles for shoes, and probably chiropody for a few years and maybe physio so in a way its worth nhs cos of long term cost

i walk on the sides of my feet so all my shoes get trashed quickly and have realllllllllly thick dead skin on soles of feet and sides of feet, urghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

am on holiday in greece in aug so should have referral before then (been on list for about 10mths)

Smurfgirl · 27/02/2006 19:06

(do not expect violins btw fully accept that gross feet no matter what reason = MINGER)
