Sweaty feet
Causes
Perspiration is entirely natural and part of the body's temperature control mechanism. Unfortunately problems occur when the moisture is unable to evaporate away due to synthetic foot wear and socks.
What can you do?
- Check footwear- look for natural materials which will allow evaporation of the moisture.
- Natural fibre socks for the same reason.
- Allow footwear to dry out between wearing for a couple of days.
- Wear trainers only occasionally as these are mainly synthetic.
- When washing keep everything cool.
- Try products such as Odaban which guarantees 100% that it will reduce perspiration.This is available to purchase from the clinic post free- ring or email us to place your order.
- If the skin on your feet is soggy,pitted and smells- see your GP as you may have a bacterial infection requiring antibiotics.
- If nothing seems to help see your GP as there are other treatments available for extreme cases such as Physiotherapy etc.
