The most common cause of smelly feet is tinea pedis, which can be treated with oral or topical antifungal drugs, and usually pay attention to maintaining local hygiene, a balanced diet, and wearing breathable shoes and socks.
Tinea pedis is a common skin disease caused by fungal infection of the skin of the feet, mainly using antifungal drugs for treatment. Commonly used drugs include clotrimazole, econazole, miconazole, naftifine, amorolfine and other topical preparations. When the effect of local drug treatment is not good and the area of skin lesions is large, patients can take oral terbinafine, itraconazole, fluconazole and other oral preparations for treatment.
In daily life, patients with athlete’s foot should keep their feet dry and hygienic, and dry them in time after washing or bathing; used shoes and socks, foot wash basin and other supplies should be ironed, exposed to sunlight and sterilized in time; patients should wear shoes and socks of appropriate size, dry and loose and breathable; and avoid sharing nail clippers, towels and other supplies with others.
If the foot odor persists, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and follow the doctor’s instructions for examination and treatment.
