Foot Odor
|
This is my first pregnancy. It is 98 degrees outside and I have noticed that I have really strong foot odor. I've never had this problem before. I'm guessing it is hormonal and related to my pregnancy. I like to wear sandals in the summer time but I'm really self-conscious about this problem. Is there anything I can do to reduce the odor?

Keep your feet clean and dry at all times, use a special foot wash and spray which is anti-bacterial and acts like an anti-perspirant. Talc will help to absorb the excess sweat. Walk barefoot around the house as much as possible and if there is a real sweating problem, your Dr can prescribe you a special spray that helps to stop your feet sweating so much.

Hi, tenho conhecimento de que em certas gravidez existe o facto de alteração hormonal. Tive um caso na minha família em que isso aconteceu. No seu caso terá de ter um extremo cuidado com a sua higiene pessoal, e hoje em dia existem produtos framaceuticos muito bons e eficazes para evitar esses odores não desejaveis. Aconselhe-se com o seu farmaceutico.

the only way to do this is to wash your feet many times a day, and you could also use some odor powder for babies.I used that one when it needed.
As you said in the pregnancy due to the hormons, the odor is more pregnant as usual, but don't worry it will be gone after delivery.

A great way to combat and reduce foot odor, is by adding a small amount of baking soda on the sole of your feet and in between your toes.
Sprinkle a little in your sandals as well. In addition to being safe, baking soda is a great odor neutralizer and has been proven to fight off most offensive odors.

There are a lot of foot powder available in the market but this is the first time I heard of foot odor during pregnancy. Anyway, my son have a really terrible foot problem and what I did to remove it is to boil guava leaves until the water is brownish. Let it cool for a while and within tolerable heat, I soak his foot for about 30 minutes. I do this once a week until it totally disappear
