The doctor reminded about the need to choose the right shoes in severe frosts.

In severe frosts, it is important to take care of shoes. Andrey Kondrakhin, a general practitioner and Candidate of Medical Sciences, told about this on Wednesday, January 21.

According to the specialist, shoes should have thick and high soles, and they should also be loose.

"Socks should be made of cotton to wick away moisture. Synthetic options retain water and lead to a rapid loss of heat, the feet will begin to cool and freeze," RT quotes Kondrakhin.

According to him, mittens instead of gloves, a wool scarf, and a fur hat will also protect you in frosty weather.
