How to treat tinea pedis during pregnancy

The body's resistance of pregnant women is generally very low after pregnancy, so they are more susceptible to fungal infections. If pregnant women develop tinea pedis, although it will not affect the baby's body, the mother will feel very uncomfortable. However, because she is worried that it will be bad for the baby's health, she dare not take medicine. It is very bad if athlete's foot is not treated with medicine and the condition is allowed to worsen. Let's take a look at what we should do and pay attention to after athlete's foot appears.

When pregnant women have athlete's foot, they must not blindly use ointments just because it is too itchy. These ointments usually contain hormones, which may affect the baby's health. Well, you may say that you just have to bear it, but that is not the right way to go. Put the soybeans in a pot and boil them for ten to twenty minutes. When the water temperature is suitable, use the soybean water to soak your feet. This is effective in treating athlete's foot. However, it is recommended that pregnant women soak in the water for a longer period of time, and for more than three days, and they will find that the symptoms of athlete's foot will be alleviated.

In addition, pregnant women can also prepare some fresh ginger slices and salt, put them in a pot, put water in and boil it, and then wait until the water is not hot to wash their feet. Note that you should rub your feet for a few minutes when washing your feet. This can not only improve the symptoms of athlete's foot, but also eliminate fatigue.

In addition, rice vinegar also has a good anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effect. When pregnant women with athlete's foot suffer from it, it is recommended to soak their feet in rice vinegar. This method is very simple and will not cause any effect on the fetus. Pregnant women can soak their feet twice a day for about an hour each time. Usually, the athlete's foot condition will be significantly improved in four days.

If pregnant women want to improve the condition of athlete's foot, they can also boil water with peppercorns and add a little salt to the water. After the water boils, let it cool down a little, and then you can soak your feet in it. It is recommended to soak your feet for more than 20 minutes every night before going to bed. In this way, the condition of athlete's foot will be much better in about seven days.

If pregnant women want to prevent itchy athlete's foot, they can also wipe the affected area frequently with iodine, and wash their socks frequently. Try to wear sneakers as little as possible. It is recommended to wear cloth shoes more often. This can avoid the recurrence of athlete's foot and itchy feet symptoms.
