How to Minimize Feet Odor
Feet odor? Oh, I know it is foot odor, I just want to catch your attention. I have a personal story to tell about foot odor. While me my friend are busy watching a thrilling movie someone knocks on her apartment door. The person introduced himself to my friend then my friend opened the door for him to come in. I was sorry to embarrass my friend’s visitor who handed her a package from her mom as he sit on the sofa. Actually I was busy watching the movie and had not taken a time even to look who is my friend’s visitor. As I have smell the bad odor I automatically covered my nose and unintentionally search where it come from. Automatically but shy enough he admitted that it was his feet that stinks. “Oh, feet odor” I said to myself then I asked for an apology for my reaction, I have no intention of embarrassing him.
Foot odor is the result when bacteria combine to sweat. We cannot prevent the sweating but we can minimize the bacteria. Here are some simple tips to minimize foot odor:
- Keep your feet clean. After removing your socks and shoes, wash your feet with soap and water.
- Thoroughly dry your feet, especially between the toes, before putting on your shoes.
- Before putting on your shoes, it would be better if you splash some talcum powder on your feet.
- Give your feet a time to breath at least twice during busy hours. At least 10 minutes will do.
- Change your socks daily.
- If possible, it would be better if you have at least 2 pairs of shoes. Wear them alternately. Avoid rubber-soled shoes, which do not allow your feet to breath easily.
- Place activated charcoal powder in a pouch or small solid charcoal to your pair of shoes if not in use.
- Thoroughly wash your shoes at least thrice a month, with more emphasis on the inner part of the shoes.
