It doesn’t take much to make your day uncomfortable. Imagine taking a walk in your new shoes, only to feel a sting after a few steps, a painful skin abrasion has just formed. That tiny blister or chafed skin can quickly ruin your mood and mobility.

That’s exactly what happened to one patient who experienced a skin lesion on their foot from repeated friction. It started off as mild discomfort, then turned into cracked skin and pain with every step.

Skin lesions caused by abrasion or chafing usually occur when the top layer of the skin is worn down by continuous rubbing. Common triggers include tight shoes, sweaty socks, irritating fabrics, or long walks in hot weather.

If not treated properly, these seemingly minor injuries can turn into bigger problems—such as skin infections or prolonged healing time.

In this case, the patient began a simple yet effective routine. First, they gently cleansed the affected skin. Then, they applied wund+™ Regeneration Cream daily.

The goal? Hydrate, soothe, and protect the damaged area. After just nine days, the lesion started to dry up, redness and pain reduced, and healing progressed without complications.

To avoid chafing or abrasions, especially on your feet:

• Wear breathable, well-fitting shoes

• Choose socks that reduce friction

• Keep your skin moisturised

Using a product like wund+™ Regeneration Cream can also help by keeping the skin hydrated and resilient—so you can keep moving comfortably, every step of the way.
