Sweaty & Foul-Smelling Feet
Most of us have suffered from sweaty feet and odour occasionally. Yet, for some people, sweaty feet and foul foot odour are persistent problems that can be embarrassing and uncomfortable. With 250,000 sweat glands, feet tend to sweat more than other parts of the body. With a daily hygiene routine, you can usually keep sweaty feet and malodour in check.
Our skin has many functions, and getting rid of excess heat from our body through sweat is one of them. Excess sweating, failure to leave the body, and accumulation of sweat is called hyperhidrosis. While sweat does not produce an odour, bacteria growth in the sweat does. Bacteria, fungi, mould, and yeast all thrive in moisture-rich, warm environments and cause the foul odour we all know, and in excess, it is called bromhidrosis.
Don’t let foul and sweaty feet hold you back. With our chiropody guide and webpage with more information, you can regain confidence and bid farewell to discomfort. Embrace the freedom of fresh, healthy feet today!
