Bad smell on feet!!!
Bad smell on feet is an embarrassing condition. Some people have such a bad smell on their feet that when they take off their shoes, those around them run away with their hands in their noses, creating an uncomfortable situation. To lead a healthy life, it is necessary to keep an eye on this for a healthy environment.
By
adopting some simple techniques, we can get rid of it
-
The doctor said - There are numerous sweat glands on
our skin. Many people's feet sweat while wearing shoes. Along with sweat,
water, salt, oil or fatty substances and many other metabolic substances are
released. Thousands of bacteria on the skin of the feet take these secretions
in the damp environment of sweaty feet and create various waste products. One
of these is a type of fatty acid called 'isovaleric acid'. This is why feet
smell bad.
There are definitely ways to prevent bad smell on
feet. We can get rid of it if we are a little aware. The first thing to do to
remove bad smell on feet is to keep our feet and shoes and socks clean. Along
with this, some techniques can be helpful in getting rid of embarrassing odors.
Experts say -
1. Keep your feet clean. Wash your feet multiple times
a day. It is best to wash them with warm soapy water. Antibacterial soap is
even better. This will reduce the number of germs on your skin.
2. Dry your feet thoroughly before putting on shoes or
socks. If your feet feel wet inside your shoes, you can take them off for a
while and dry them.
3. Use cotton socks. Cotton socks absorb sweat from
your feet. Avoid wearing the same socks for two consecutive days. Use clean
socks every day.
4. It is better to wear open sandals on hot days. In
the case of shoes, it is better to use leather or cloth shoes, as this will
allow air to circulate inside the shoes. As a result, your feet will sweat
less.
5. Dry your shoes every day when you return home. It
is even better if you can dry them in the sun.
6. Keeping your toenails short and clean is good in
many ways. This will not only reduce the number of places for germs to hide,
but will also reduce odor, and it will also be beneficial for anyone with
problems such as nail fungus.
Doctor's advice on foot health --
Foot care is not just about beauty treatments or
pedicures, but there are many other things that need to be taken care of for
foot health. Regular foot cleaning, if necessary, applying moisturizer to the
feet. If any part of the feet becomes hard and rough, rubbing it to keep it
soft is very important for foot health. Again, foot health should be kept in
mind when choosing shoes.
1. Foot hygiene: When washing feet, soap and water
should reach between the toes well. After washing feet, the entire foot, soles
of the feet and the toe gaps should be wiped thoroughly. If the feet are wet or
damp, the risk of fungal infection increases. It is never good to wear socks on
wet feet. Instead of using the same shoes every day, two shoes can be kept for
regular use. Wear one one day, then the other the next day.
2. Shoe selection - You should not wear completely
flat and low (flat) sandals. Again, it is not good to wear shoes that are more
than two inches high. It is better to wear pencil heels or pointed heels less.
It is better not to use shoes with a narrow front; it is also not good to wear
tight shoes. Wearing these shoes can even disrupt the natural alignment of the
bones of the foot. The shoes should be such that the toes fit inside without any
folds. It is better to buy shoes in the afternoon because the size of the feet
is the largest at the end of the day,
3. Nail cutting - Keep your toenails short. Cutting
your nails too deeply can cause ingrown nails, and even if your nails are long,
accidents can occur. Do not cut the corners too much.
4. Corns or hard skin - Sometimes the feet become
hard, the skin thickens in some places. Sometimes blisters form. Never try to
treat these at home with anything. Seek medical attention.
5. Cracked feet - Due to dryness, the feet crack, and
infection occurs through these cracks. Sometimes blood leaks out. So to prevent
cracked feet, clean your feet well with a scrubber and apply petroleum jelly or
moisturizer.
# Herbal ingredients also work well in foot care - for example, washing your feet with neem leaves and turmeric powder occasionally or often works well for any foot problem, including bad odor. Washing your feet with lukewarm tea water also works well to reduce foot odor and these herbals also help you to lead a healthy life.
