Tinea pedis is a common skin disease caused by a pathogenic fungus. It is characterized by itchy feet, small subcutaneous blisters, white skin between the toes, or dry, cracked skin with a lot of flaking after scratching. How to properly self-prevention: First of all, daily protection is the key to prevent and treat the disease. In spring and summer, the fungus that causes foot fungus is very easy to survive in the warm and humid environment, if people wear non-breathable shoes all day or do not change socks, coupled with more sweaty feet, the fungus will flood. Foot fungus is contagious, such as sharing towels, foot wash basins, slippers, etc. with others, which can also cause cross-infection. People who are prone to foot sweat should wear cotton socks, not pure wool or nylon socks, or rubber shoes, wash socks every day and keep feet dry, toenails are a favorite breeding ground for fungi, and nail scale should be removed regularly. Do not walk barefoot in public swimming pools, bathrooms, gyms and other places. Minimize working in an overly humid and hot environment. You should eat more fruits and vegetables to increase vitamins and increase the antibacterial ability of the skin tissue. There are also some simple treatments that you may want to try: 1. Use raw garlic slices to repeatedly rub the affected area, which has the effect of killing the fungus. 2, with vinegar green tea into a paste, coated on the affected area, with the match, green tea contains tannic acid, with antibacterial effect, especially for the treatment of foot fungus filamentous fungus has a special effect. 3, with eggplant root and salt boiled water to wash the feet, can also treat foot odor. 4, summer foot offense, you can first wash the affected feet, wipe dry, and then apply the affected area, 1-2 times a day, generally several times will be effective. 5, take 1000 grams of wheat rice stone, add boiling water 2000 grams soaked, scrubbing feet with this water every day. 6, with ice borax 3, six a packet, mix well, the foot will be clean and dry at night, with the drug dry application of the affected area. Generally about 3 days to see results. 7, drug treatment can be used to antifungal ointment applied externally, while sprinkling antifungal dispersion in the shoe, can achieve satisfactory results. In addition, some wrong views should be corrected in time: 1, some people think that foot odor is the body of other diseases exports, and once cured of foot odor, will get other major diseases, so they let it develop, itching with hands scratch or hot water, for a moment of comfort. I do not know that the itch will be more intense after the skin is stimulated by these, forming a vicious circle of scratching more itchy, more itchy scratching, until the scratching can stop itching. In this way, the bacteria and dirt in the hands and nails naturally fall into the focal area and infect the area, causing ringworm, nail fungus, and ringworm to occur at the same time. 2. The publicity of hormonal drugs is rather one-sided, as they only say that they are “effective in stopping itching” and “have an immediate effect on itching”, but they do not know that hormonal drugs cannot eliminate fungi at all. On the contrary, hormones will make the skin immune system reduce, leading to the proliferation of pathogenic fungi, resulting in the spread and aggravation of foot odor. 3, there are also people will be crushed aspirin sprinkled between the erosion of the toes, resulting in the formation of ulcers, long-term pain does not heal. Therefore, you should use antifungal drugs to treat foot fungus to fundamentally relieve itching and other skin symptoms. 4, because the fungus grows fast, more stubborn, after the treatment of the disease disappeared, still need to consolidate the medication for a week, in order to completely kill the fungus and prevent recurrence. 5, some people confuse foot odor and foot disease, which is not right. Medical “foot disease” refers to the systemic disease caused by vitamin B deficiency; foot odor is a common skin disease caused by fungal infection. After the cause is clear, we naturally know how to prescribe the right medicine. If the condition is serious, it can lead to infection, fever, redness, swelling and pain in the lower extremities, etc. You should go to the hospital in a timely manner and do not underestimate the disease. In addition, in serious cases, you can go to a physician for treatment, taking antifungal drugs preferably under the guidance of a physician.
