Millions of Americans suffer from a condition that is commonly known as “stinky feet”. The medical community refers to this condition as either hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating) or bromohydrosis (excessive smelliness). A smelly foot smells like something akin to really bad cheese mixed with b.o. and there is nothing that will clear the room faster than a nasty case of stink foot. Since many people (i.e. women) will not tolerate it like they would other hygienic flaws like bad breath, it has been known to be a relationship deal breaker.
You may wondering what causes this phenomenon, and perhaps may be pondering what steps you might want to take so that you may rejoin your friends in family in the living room….
Wash your feet both often and thoroughly to minimize the bacteria. Socks are cheap. Buy a lot of them and change them often, especially when working out. Apply a solution of 5 or 10 percent benzoyl peroxide to your feet to wipe out the bacteria. Benzoyl peroxide is an effective antibacterial agent that is found in many over the counter
acne treatments. Powder those puppies everyday with either non-medicated baby or foot powder. Alternate your foot receptacles. Letting your shoes “air out” after use will help reduce the bacteria. You will also be able to keep your shoes for a longer period of time if you occasionally switch them out. It’s all about the material. Nylon socks will make your feet sweat more, as will plastic shoes. These materials do not let your dogs’ breath. Leather, canvas and mesh are much better options. Wear thick cotton socks. It is like wrapping your foot in a towel. Good quality socks that can absorb your
excessive sweat are key to maintaining the dreaded stinky feet syndrome.
