Sunita Williams, Butch Wilmore likely to have ‘baby feet’ after arrival on earth: What is this strange condition and why does it happen to astronauts?

Astronauts returning from space experience ‘baby feet,’ where their soles become hypersensitive due to microgravity. This is caused by the lack of weight-bearing exercises. Recovery involves gradual re-acclimatization to pressure, specific exercises, balance training, and proper hydration. Other effects include puffy faces, muscle loss, and dizziness. Rehabilitation is critical for a complete recovery. Astronauts returning from space experience ‘baby feet,’ where their soles become hypersensitive due to microgravity.
