Tingly feet could mean anything from pre-diabetes, circulatory problems, etc. to wearing shoes that don't fit correctly. First, change shoes to ones that support and cushion your feet; get the correct size, even if that means having them fitted. Still tingly? Ask your doctor to run blood work to rule out other causes. Be sure to list family history and other concerns. Good luck!
I use orthotics in my shoes. Otherwise my feet would hurt horribly. I get semi regular pedicures, so that ingrown nails can be kept short. If I don't do this my toes hurt. I put Cetaphil on my legs and feet to keep them from getting dry and scaly.
I buy nail polish from the sale bin at Ulta, and take in one of the colors I've bought for my pedis.
I find that wearing shoes that have roomier to boxes helps the comfort of my feet.
I have stress fractures in my left foot, due to an injury back in 2013. I have found that a foot soak, of hot water, Listerine(not the blue one), and peroxide, distilled vinegar...and soaking till the water cools, has helped my feet tremendously.
I have to agree with the others though, to consult your Dr first to inquire on the tingling issues.
The tingly sensation was just temporary and is gone. It turned out to be due to some crappy footwear that I've gotten rid of. I was wearing it while walking on some rough terrain for a long time. I do agree with everyone that if you have tingling that persists, you should have it checked out with your doctor. I find that shoes that are a little wider, especially in the toe area, and have a lower profile in the heel, work best for me. I also like to walk barefooted around the house and think that strengthens the feet over time. I do like to soak my feet in warm water with Epsom salt ocassionally.

With diabetes, having someone do a pedicure on me terrifies me. So, daily, in the shower, I plug the tub so I soak my feet as I shower. I rub them gently with a pumice stone. Since I do this daily, it takes seconds. Nail brush my toes. Afterwards I lotion up my feet with Curel Foot Therapy. And check if my nails need cut or filed. Then socks and shoes.
I have a painful condition called heel fat pad atrophy. Walking on hard surfaces is very painful quickly. I wear Tules heel cups and very good shoes. I have wide feet with narrow heels, and high instep. My foot doctor said to stick with New Balance made on the SL - 2 last...and they fit like a dream.
