Getting Rid of Foot Odor

If you have stinky feet, that means it’s time to start investing in a foot care regime, as your feet are suffering from a combination of sweat and bacteria. Make sure to wash your feet thoroughly, including in between the toes. A pumice stone is ideal for helping to remove any dirt or dead skin. Properly dry your feet, as moisture “can lead to the growth of fungus and bacteria.” Trim your toenails straight across, choose comfortable shoes made from breathable leather, alternate and wash your shoes on a regular basis, and opt for cotton socks. You can also use at-home ingredients such as cornstarch or apple cider vinegar to apply to your feet to remove sweat and bacteria.

Every Day Foot Care

Often, people take care of their bodies, face and hair more so than they do for their feet. But the feet are a very important aspect of our bodies, and one that we should pay more attention to. After all, without our feet, we would not be able to perform most daily tasks. It is best to check your feet regularly to make sure there are no new bruises or cuts that you may not have noticed before, for example.

For dry feet, moisturizer can easily be a remedy and can be applied as often as necessary to the affected areas. Wearing shoes that fit well can also help you maintain good foot health, as well as making it easier to walk and do daily activities without the stress or pain of ill-fitting shoes, high heels, or even flip flops.

Also, wearing clean socks with closed shoes is important to ensure that sweat and bacteria do not accumulate within the shoe. Clean socks help to prevent athlete’s foot, fungi problems, bad odors, and can absorb sweat.
