Is foot odor caused by heavy dampness?

Chinese medicine believes that foot odor is caused by heavy dampness, while Western medicine mainly believes that foot odor is an infectious skin disease caused by the infection of the skin fungus, and there is no contradiction in the understanding of the disease between the two, because the fungus likes a moist, warm environment, and patients with heavy dampness facilitate the attack of the fungus on the skin. For the treatment of foot odor, you can choose to take oral herbal medicines that clear heat and drain dampness, such as Phellodendron capsules, etc. You can also combine the two with topical topical antifungal infection drugs, such as Luliconazole cream, terbinafine hydrochloride cream, bifenazole gel, etc. The combination of the two will give better results.
