About the socks
remember that they need to fit appropriately (proper graduated tightness getting looser at the top)or they can do more harm than good.
Elevate whenever you can ... maybe try to switch feet with the pedal so you can take turns getting each leg up.
I had that trouble for awhile (b4 doing MT work), but it went away. No idea what the deal was. I have always been thin and rarely use salt.
Slipper-socks
Me too! I love slipper-socks. They keep my toes nice and warm and I am able to feel the pedal well. :)
I am wearing white socks

Me, too! Socks for sleeping have to be white! :) nm

Thick socks. I have the same problem.
Nah...I just tuck 'em into my socks...
Need some ideas for some warm socks sm
I know, I know, it isn't even winter yet as my husband would say. It's in the 50s outside and my feet are like ice. Right now I have them buried under the heating pad. Can't use a space heater because then my room gets like 110. Any ideas for some nice, warm, nonbinding socks as tight socks make my legs and ankles hurt and just plain drive me nuts.
Same problem here, I mostly wear slipper-socks.

For really big plants, I put cotton socks on my hands and just rub

Vaseline & socks overnight - not sexy but works nm
...
Bag balm and sweat socks...Nasty but very effective...
My feet get so dry they crack and bleed, summer or winter. It takes me about 3 days of sleeping in sweat socks, but it works. Also I swear by anything with shea butter in it, especially anything from Bath and Body Works rocks!!!. I also swear by Gold Bond Ultimate Soothing skin therapy lotion. It has shea butter in it too and it rocks too. There is no real smell to it so if you are allergic or sensitive, then this will work.
I wonder if we could somehow augment our MT salaries by being spokespeople for these companies. LOL.
Thin socks ALL the time. Can't use my pedal barefoot or with shoes. nm
