Home Remedies for Stinking Feet

Posted on September 25, 2007 in Skin Care

Feet stink while you wear shoes. If your foot remains wet, bacteria makes them stink and if they are too dry, fungi make them stink. Persistent feet stink is because of the combination of both the situations.

Stinking feet are very much curable. The only word that can keep you from feet stink is “Hygiene”. Here are a few tips to keep your feet from stinking:

Change your socks every two days. If you have more than one pair of shoes keep changing the pairs in three days time.
Wash your feet after removing your socks and wipe them dry.
Use synthetic socks instead of cotton ones. This is because cotton socks retain moisture and synthetic socks don’t.
For people who have severe feet stink, try soaking your feet in tea. The tannin in tea helps prevent bacteria.
When the shoes start stinking, put them in a plastic bag and keep them in the freezer for 24 hours and that will kill the bacteria.

If you are unable to control the bad odor then perhaps you need medical help. Doctors or podiatrists will prescribe anti-fungal and anti-bacterial medicine to help you combat stinking feet.
