Ingredients
- Vicks VapoRub (original or any mentholated chest rub)
- A pair of clean cotton socks
Instructions
- Before going to bed, wash your feet with warm water and dry them thoroughly.
- Take a generous amount of Vicks VapoRub and rub it all over the soles of your feet, focusing especially on the heels and balls of the feet.
- Once your feet are covered, put on a pair of clean cotton socks to lock in the moisture and keep the rub from rubbing off on your sheets.
- Go to bed as usual and let the VapoRub work overnight.
- In the morning, wash your feet to remove any remaining residue.
Why This Works:
Many people swear by this home remedy for soothing nighttime coughs, helping with congestion, and keeping feet soft and moisturized. The menthol vapors can help open nasal passages when inhaled subtly through the night, and the rub keeps feet hydrated, preventing cracked heels.
