Скачать или смотреть Trench Foot

Did you know that during World War I, the harsh and unsanitary conditions of the trenches led to a painful condition known as "trench foot"? Soldiers were often required to stand for extended periods in waterlogged trenches without the opportunity to change wet socks or boots. This constant exposure to moisture and cold hindered blood circulation, resulting in swelling, pain, and infections. In severe cases, the damage was so extensive that amputation became necessary. The overflowing latrines and poor drainage systems only worsened these conditions, highlighting the extreme challenges faced by soldiers during the war.
