How to deal with shoes heel grinding

Shoes can be worn by softening the heel of the shoe, sticking anti-wear stickers or band-aids, wearing thicker socks, adjusting the size or shape of the shoe, using antibiotics, etc. 1. Softening the heel of the shoe Use wet towels, alcohol, wet newspapers or toothpaste to penetrate into the material of the shoe, especially leather, to make it soft and reduce friction with the heel. 2. Wear or Band-Aid Wear or Band-Aid is usually made of soft and thick materials such as silicone, sponge or medical tape. It can form a layer of cushion between the foot and the shoe, reducing direct friction and thus protecting the heel from being worn. 3. Wear thicker socks Wear thicker socks can increase the distance between the foot and the shoe, reduce the direct contact area between the heel and the shoe, thereby reducing friction and wear. In addition, thicker socks can also provide a certain cushioning effect, reducing the impact of shoes on the heel when walking. 4. Adjust shoe size or shape If the shoe is worn because the size or shape does not fit the foot, try adjusting the size or shape of the shoe. For example, heat the shoe with a hair dryer to soften and expand the material to fit the foot. Or put the sealed bag filled with water into the shoes, and then put it in the refrigerator to freeze, and use the principle of volume expansion after water freezes to expand the shoes. 5. Use antibiotics If local damage occurs, antibiotics such as chlortetracycline hydrochloride ointment, mupirocin ointment, metronidazole gel, etc. should be used as prescribed to eliminate inflammation. If the degree of heel wear is serious, erosion, ulceration, bleeding or blisters appear, it is recommended to stop walking in time and go to the hospital for debridement.
