summary
Tinea pedis, also known as beriberi, is very itchy when it comes on, or there are cracks everywhere, which are very painful, or the bad smell of feet can't be covered. The most annoying thing is that it is easy to relapse and difficult to cure. Now I'm going to tell you something about beriberi?.
What's the matter with beriberi?
First: the cause of beriberi is fungal infection, foot skin injury, no timely disinfection, contact with fungal bacteria. When the foot is injured, the wound should be treated in time, do not soak in water to cause infection caused by inflammation.
Second: wear some poor quality and airtight shoes for a long time, and your feet will sweat during exercise, which will keep your feet in a humid environment for a long time. So don't buy shoddy shoes. Clean the inside of the shoes frequently and get them to a sunny place to bask in, so as to prevent the growth of fungi and bacteria.
Third: if you wear chemical fiber socks for a long time, the sweat on your feet will not evaporate. Socks are in direct contact with the skin of the feet, should choose cotton, sweat, breathable socks.
matters needing attention
1. Select the right medicine: povidone iodine solution can be used when the water comes out, terbinafine cream and ketoconazole cream can be used when the water is dry; Severe cases need oral treatment, such as itraconazole. 2. Long medication time: most of the topical drugs have good curative effect, and the itching and exudation can be alleviated after a few days. At this time, we still need to insist on medication, not less than two weeks, otherwise it is difficult to kill the subcutaneous fungi, leading to repeated treatment. 3. Keep breathable and dry: tinea pedis is a fungal infection, fungi are easy to grow in a humid environment, so the initial part of tinea pedis is often in the tight and seamless position of the toes, such as between the fourth, fifth or third and fourth toes, so be sure to clip clean gauze or toilet paper after applying ointment to keep breathable and dry.
