Ans: Dear Mr. Anil. Thank you for your query. As a Physiotherapist, I would say walking barefoot on a rough, dusty surface with cement exposure can cause irritation, inflammation, or mild allergic reactions, leading to foot swelling. Prolonged standing or walking on hard surfaces without support may also contribute to strain and fluid retention. To reduce swelling, keep your feet elevated when sitting or lying down and apply a cold compress for 10-15 minutes, a few times a day. Gentle foot exercises like ankle rotations, toe flexion, and heel-toe raises can improve circulation and reduce stiffness. Wearing cushioned slippers or compression socks can provide support and prevent further irritation. Additionally, staying hydrated, reducing salt intake, and soaking your feet in warm water with Epsom salt may help alleviate discomfort. If swelling persists, worsens, or is accompanied by pain, redness, or warmth, consult a doctor to rule out infections or underlying conditions. I wish you quick recovery
