What is the best treatment for athlete's foot

Athlete's foot is always an embarrassing topic. Especially in winter, the smell of athlete's foot is most obvious. Therefore, many people who suffer from athlete's foot are generally afraid of wearing slippers, which also brings troubles to their lives. And it is believed that athlete's foot can occur to anyone at any age. If athlete's foot occurs, it is related to the human body's physical constitution, so it is very important to treat athlete's foot.

1. Erosive athlete's foot: The biggest misunderstanding is that you should never use potassium permanganate, refonal, gentian violet or alcohol-based antiseptic solutions. If you want to sterilize, you can only use povidone iodine (iodine tincture). Iodine tincture is not iodine tincture. Wet the toes thoroughly with a small amount of povidone-iodine, then soak a bandage with Kangfuxin solution, wrap it around each toe, and tear it off after 1 hour. It will take 3 days to recover. Do not touch water or other medicines within a week. Take vitamin B1 C orally for detoxification. The cause of the erosive type is excessive moisture, which will definitely recur when exposed to water.

2. Blister-type athlete's foot: If small blisters appear on the feet but have not ruptured, you can first soak them in 3% boric acid solution, or apply clotrimazole anti-tinea lotion or compound salicylic acid tincture once, and then choose antifungal creams or solutions such as Lamisil. The effect is quite satisfactory, so patients don’t need to worry too much, and the cure rate is still very high as long as the patients actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment.

Keratotic athlete's foot: Apply compound benzoic acid cream or compound salicylic acid alcohol alternately, once in the morning and once in the evening. It is best to wrap the area with plastic film after applying the medicine so that the medicine can penetrate into the thick skin and facilitate peeling off the thick skin. When people suffer from athlete's foot, they still need to pay attention to hygiene in their daily lives. Only good hygiene habits can help better restore health. This is also very important, and people with athlete's foot need to persist in taking medication.

4. Traditional Chinese medicine method: You can also use some traditional Chinese medicine to treat athlete's foot. Because the most common cause of athlete's foot is endocrine disorders, you can use some traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the body, so that you can fundamentally treat athlete's foot. Therefore, it is very important to find out the cause and treat the disease.

To treat athlete's foot, you need to choose a method that suits you so that your body can recover. Of course, it is not the case that the best method to treat athlete's foot is suitable for you as others say. I hope that people who suffer from athlete's foot have a certain understanding of this concept. It can avoid blindly following the crowd.
