Recovering from the Wear and Tear of Everest Trekking
Your feet took 150,000 steps during your Everest trekking adventure. Now that your Mount Everest expedition is over, they need more than just rest—they need active rehabilitation to recover from the strain.
The repetitive pressure of the walk to Everest Base Camp creates thick skin. Use a pumice stone and deep moisturizer to prevent painful cracking. Your feet worked hard for that Mount Everest summit view; reward them now.
Rolling your foot over a cold water bottle or a tennis ball helps release the plantar fascia, which can become tight during a Mount Everest expedition. It is the best way to prevent long-term injury after Everest trekking.
Black toenails are common after the long descent. Keep them clean and don't force them off. It’s a temporary 'souvenir' from your Mount Everest expedition that will heal with time and proper foot hygiene.
Your feet are your most loyal partners. Give them the care they deserve after your successful Everest trekking journey toward the Mount Everest summit.
