    i seem to go real hard on my ankles and feet with the mat burn..any tips on soothing it, or preventing it? i dont mind the actual burn but some are so bad, i blister, or open up.

    tape your feet where the mat burn keeps occuring...

    Soothing it i would just use Micatracen and a band aid....

    Taping your feet gets anoying but it helps... If you dont want to do that just tough it out through the burns and you will get calusses.
