And also it can help prevent unnecessary sprains and bone fractures.</p> <p>Secondly i play basketball and wearing a shoe can really help you to run, brake and move much quicker and steadier :)</p> Tue, 20 May 2008 19:19:23 +0800 www.sgforums.com:2762:310345:8100511 dranoel maxwell http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2762/topics/310345 <blockquote> <div class="quote_from">Originally posted by cApitaland:</div> <div class="quote_body"> <p>ok here is the deal. i play basketball on a regular basis, say almost everyday. i play <strong>barefoot</strong> on those typical concrete floors usually at night. ok occasionally patches of red would appear on my sole.</p> <p>i have discern that the red patches are actually blood inside. is there any repercussions if i allow this to continue? perhaps i should start wearing shoes.</p> <p>oh ya, does lack of salt result to headaches after a workout?</p> </div> </blockquote> <p>Yes. Lack of salt and low level of sodium in the body may result in dizziness, vomitting, nausea, muslce cramp etc', but that's usually happened when it severe cases.&nbsp; You can try read up <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyponatremia" rel= "nofollow">Hyponatremia</a>.</p> Wed, 09 Apr 2008 05:41:57 +0800 www.sgforums.com:2762:310345:7998220 Darkness_hacker99 http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2762/topics/310345 <p>oh ok thanks eagle. i got my shoes already hahaa. scared something might happen if this goes on.</p> Wed, 09 Apr 2008 00:56:20 +0800 www.sgforums.com:2762:310345:7997498 cApitaland http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2762/topics/310345 <p>why you play barefoot? Even if nothing happens to the sole, the impact of landing might have long term effect on your knees or ankles.</p> <p>I'm not very sure whether it is because of lack of salt that causes the headaches, but it might be because blood flows to your active muscles, thus less blood flow to your head, causing a temporary low blood pressure. That's what I think.</p> Tue, 18 Mar 2008 22:20:19 +0800 www.sgforums.com:2762:310345:7945001 eagle http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2762/topics/310345 <p>ok here is the deal. i play basketball on a regular basis, say almost everyday. i play <strong>barefoot</strong> on those typical concrete floors usually at night. ok occasionally patches of red would appear on my sole.</p> <p>i have discern that the red patches are actually blood inside. is there any repercussions if i allow this to continue? perhaps i should start wearing shoes.</p> <p>oh ya, does lack of salt result to headaches after a workout?</p> Sun, 09 Mar 2008 21:15:58 +0800 www.sgforums.com:2762:310345:7918350 cApitaland http://www.sgforums.com/forums/2762/topics/310345
