Yellowish foot odor may be due to foot fungal infection or exuberant secretion of sweat glands in the foot combined with thickening of the stratum corneum.
1. Exuberant secretion of the sweat glands of the feet combined with thickening of the stratum corneum: If the small sweat glands of the feet are exuberant, sweat is secreted in large quantities, and sweating will easily allow bacteria to multiply, which in turn will lead to smelly feet. Yellowing of the soles of the feet is associated with thickening of the stratum corneum. You need to wash your feet regularly and use moisturizing cream to soften the cuticle.
The thickening of the cuticle on the soles of the feet can be applied locally with urea cream, vitamin A cream or salicylic acid ointment to seal the cuticle.
2. Foot fungal infection: the yellowing of the soles of the feet may be caused by fungal infection of tinea pedis, can apply topical ointment, such as miconazole nitrate cream and so on.
In daily life, pay attention to the loose and breathable shoes, and eat more fresh fruits and raw vegetables, try not to share slippers with others to avoid fungal infection. Normally, you can soak your feet more often to keep your feet clean and hygienic. If you need to use drugs, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions.
