Sweating is a completely natural bodily function. The body regulates its temperature in this way and keeps it within a healthy range. At the same time, sweating serves to cool the skin and the body. The amount of sweat produced varies from person to person. Excessive sweating can occur either over the entire body or locally, such as on the hands or feet.
Humans have a particularly high number of sweat glands on the forehead and feet. Nowadays, our feet are mostly enclosed in socks and shoes, which often hinders heat and moisture exchange. Those who also suffer from excessive sweating face several problems: constant moisture causes the skin to swell and become susceptible to germs and fungi. As soon as bacteria break down the fresh, odorless sweat, unpleasant foot odor develops. Socks and shoes become damp and gradually ruin the footwear. This can even become so distressing that sweaty feet can be very burdensome for people and even become a "love killer."
Causes of excessive sweating on the feet
Excessive sweating on the feet can have various causes. Socks or shoes made of synthetic materials can hinder moisture balance, preventing enough air from reaching the skin. Therefore, one should always wear socks made of pure cotton and shoes made of materials that can quickly transport moisture outward.
Proper foot care and hygiene are essential
Everyone wants to avoid unpleasant odors. Proper foot care can reduce or prevent this. Daily washing or a warm foot bath is relaxing and thoroughly cleans the feet at the same time. Afterwards, the feet should be dried thoroughly. Odaban foot and shoe powder is additionally sprinkled into the shoes to take long-term and lasting action against foot and shoe odor.
