Recommend 7 good methods to treat tinea pedis

Tinea pedis, commonly known as athlete's foot or Hong Kong foot, is caused by fungal infection and skin damage. It usually occurs on one foot first and then spreads to the other foot. Symptoms include itching. As the disease worsens, erosion, pustules, etc. will appear. It is highly contagious and should be treated in time once discovered. The following are good ways to treat tinea pedis.

1. [Young willow leaves treat athlete's foot]

I have had athlete's foot for several years, and the medication has had little effect. I heard that young willow leaves can cure it. I tried boiling a handful of young willow leaves in water and then using that to wash my feet with. After a few tries, the effect was very good and now my athlete's foot has been cured. I told this method to several friends who had athlete's foot, and they also relieved their pain after using it. If only the ulcers are between the toes, you can rub the young willow leaves into small balls and clamp them between the toes at night (you can wear socks), and the effect will be seen the next day.

2. [White sugar can cure athlete's foot]

Soak your feet in warm water and then wash them. Take a little white sugar and rub the affected area with your hands repeatedly. Wash them after rubbing, or you can leave them alone. Do it once every two or three days. Generally, patients with mild athlete's foot can be cured after three times. This method is especially effective for athlete's foot between the toes.

3. [Pepper and salt water to treat athlete’s foot]

A friend of mine had suffered from athlete's foot for many years. Last year, a friend introduced a prescription, which cured his foot after trying it. Specific method: Add 10 grams of pepper and 20 grams of salt, add to water and boil for a while. When the temperature is not hot enough to burn your feet, you can soak your feet. Soak for 20 minutes every night. After a week, you will be cured. The used pepper and salt water can be heated and used continuously the next day. Use with caution in patients with ulcer infection.

4. [Leeks can cure athlete’s foot]

A certain netizen's feet are itchy all year round, and he often gets ulcers between his toes, and no treatment has been effective. Later, a friend introduced a recipe: Wash half a pound of fresh leeks, cut them into small pieces, put them in a basin, and pour boiling water into them. When the water is cool enough to put your feet in, soak your feet for half an hour. The water should cover the tops of your feet. You can rub the middles of your feet at the same time. Wash it again after a week, the effect is very good.

5. [Leek soup treats ringworm]

Another netizen has had tinea manuum and tinea pedis for decades and has tried almost all kinds of tinea medicines, but all were in vain. In 1986, I got a folk remedy that actually cured me, and there has been no recurrence in the past 5 years. The recipe is very simple:

Buy a handful of leeks, wash and cut them into small pieces, put them in a basin and mash them into a paste, then pour in boiling water (enough amount to soak your hands and feet), wait until the water temperature drops to warm, soak your hands and feet, and rub the affected area for about 30 minutes, without any pain. I only soaked it twice, and the itchiness gradually stopped. After a few days, the skin peeled off and smooth skin grew back.

6. [Wash your feet with salt and ginger water to remove foot odor]

Put an appropriate amount of salt and a few slices of ginger in hot water, heat it for a few minutes, wash your feet when it is not hot, and rub it for a few minutes. It will not only remove foot odor, but also make your feet feel relaxed and eliminate fatigue.

7. [Boiled radish in water can remove foot odor]

Use half a white radish, cut it into thin slices, put it in a pot, add appropriate amount of water, boil it over high heat for 3 minutes, then boil it over low heat for 5 minutes, then pour it into a basin, wait for it to cool down to a moderate temperature, then wash your feet repeatedly, and wash several times to remove foot odor.
