foot odor

[JoeC]

I am 18 years old. Two years ago i began to realize that my feet stinks. Even till now, my feet still stinks. Sometimes the smell is very strong that the people next to me can smell it. Just recently i realized that my feet is sweating a lot. Even now when i am typing this, my feet is wet with sweats. I don't exercise often, so i don't know why my feet is acting this way. Is there anyway to solve this?

Socks: wear merino wool socks or other very good drywicking socks (check google. it's pricier but worth investment). also bamboo socks have good reputation and are cheaper.

Shoes: geox, or make sure it’s breathable shoes like leather

Insoles: Cedar wooden soles!! this is a must!

Then ask yourself if this is a bacterial overgrowth, fungus or sweat problem. Best to always check with a dermatologist!! Go to one!!!

Bacterial overgrowth: You can check if fucidin lotion (note it’s a medicine, don’t overuse) can help you. Sometimes anti acne lotion can help such as clindamycine or benzac 10% . The bacterias causing zits can sometimes be same bacetrias causing smell. Do please check a dermatologist before proceeding with these lotions. You can apply 3 times in day for a month, and changing socks everytime.

Fungus: check for topical antifungus like clotrimazole . Again, check with dermatologist.

Sweat: Apply strong anti perpirant (15–20% aluminium chloride), if that doesn't work check into buying an iontophoresis machine  and combining with glycopyronium bromide medicine, if that doesn't help there's a surgery only if you have plantar hyperhidrosis (it's called lumbar sympathetomy)

ALWAYS WASH FEET IN MORNING AND NIGHT WITH HIBISCRUB (it has chlorexhidine gluconate 4 %. it's bactericide for hours)
