What reason is beriberi crural fester?

Humid environment: the sole of the foot is a sweaty environment. There are more than 600 sweat glands per square centimeter on the sole of the foot, 2-4 times more than other parts of the body. There are more than 250000 sweat glands in total, which can secrete nearly 500ml of sweat a day. Besides moisture and salt, sweat also contains lactic acid and urea. When the water content is high, it is very conducive to the proliferation of bacteria and mold.

Sultry and airtight space: when the shoes are worn very tightly and the ventilation is poor, in addition to the increase of moisture, the pH value of the skin surface will change, from the original ph4.4 to pH7, and it will release carbon dioxide gas. This environment is most suitable for the growth of some bacteria on the sole of the foot.

Bacterial reproduction: due to the addition of one or two factors, the growth of bacteria in foot skin is caused. These bacteria can decompose keratin in skin, urea and lactic acid in foot sweat, and form various metabolites containing odor

matters needing attention

Finally, we must remember: if tinea pedis secondary infection, local acute inflammation can not be treated as general tinea pedis, should first deal with secondary infection. In case of redness and swelling, local cold and warm compress with boric acid water or furacilin liquid can be applied externally. If necessary, antibiotics should be applied to the whole body, and rest properly according to the doctor's instructions.
