How to deal with athlete's foot in worn shoes? How to prevent athlete's foot?

As we all know, athlete's foot is contagious, so other people should not wear shoes worn by people with athlete's foot. Of course, athlete's foot patients themselves must also take appropriate measures to treat their shoes, so as to alleviate the symptoms of athlete's foot and prevent the spread of athlete's foot to others. The treatment methods include disinfecting with boiling water, washing and drying shoes and socks frequently, and using antibacterial products. The following is a detailed introduction for you!

How to deal with the shoes worn by patients with athlete's foot?

Tinea pedis is a dermatophyte infection that occurs on the soles of the feet and between the toes. It can sometimes extend to the heels and dorsum of the feet, but those that only occur on the dorsum of the feet are called tinea corporis. It is similar to what Chinese medicine calls stinky snails and snail blisters.

The shoes worn by patients with athlete's foot need to be disinfected with boiling water. In addition, you need to pay attention to changing shoes every day. It is best to wear two pairs in turn. Keep the shoes dry. Put them in a ventilated place after coming back every day and wear them the next day.

Prevention and care of athlete's foot

Pay attention to local hygiene. Socks should be washed and dried with soapy water frequently. Rubber shoes or plastic-soled shoes or boots should not be worn. Public slippers or foot cloths should not be used to treat excessive sweating of hands and feet and sweat blisters. Shoes should be exposed to the sun frequently or cotton balls soaked in formaldehyde (formalin) should be placed inside the shoes and sealed for 24 to 48 hours to kill fungi. In addition to local treatment, antibacterial agents may be used as appropriate for patients with secondary bacterial infection.
