So the title may seem pretty gross right? Well the actual thing itself is. Nothing's worse than taking off your shoe/socks and getting a sour smell wafting up to your nose. Here is some info on what it is and how you can stop it:
What causes foot odor?
The main cause of foot odor is sweat. When you foot overheats it produces sweat. So when you have your shoes/socks on the sweat has no where to evaporate so it stays on your feet and shoes/socks and gets smelly. Also wearing polyester or nylon socks will cause your feet to stink more as there is no room whatsoever to get out and escape.
How do you treat foot odor?
I have tried this one and it has worked for me. Apply deodorant on your feet and it should stop the smell from getting to far. I know it sounds odd but it worked for me. Make sure you also wash your feet quite a few times a week and put on moisturizer every day. Dip your feet in some water mixed with half a cup of kosher salt. Don't rinse your feet off though just let them dry by themselves. You can also put baby powder on your feet as well. Washing your sneakers and wearing open shoes is also another solution. If your foot odor is very extreme, cut down on strong flavored food such as garlic, onions etc.
I hope this helps your foot odor problems.
