How to treat tinea pedis during pregnancy

I believe everyone knows that athlete's foot has a great impact on people's daily lives. Sometimes it will be painful and itchy when walking. The incidence rate among adults is very high, and it is quite contagious. Some people ask, will having athlete's foot during pregnancy affect the baby, and what should I do? In fact, there is no need to worry too much. Let us ask the experts to tell us how to treat athlete's foot in pregnant women.

1. The first type is erosive athlete's foot, which is characterized by the softening and whitening of the local epidermal stratum corneum. When the epidermis peels off, a bright red sore surface will be exposed; in severe cases, there will be an itchy feeling between the toes. You can put an appropriate amount of salt and a few slices of ginger in the water, heat it to boiling, wash your feet when it is not hot, and rub them for a few minutes. This will not only remove foot odor, but also increase circulation and have a relaxing effect.

2. There is a type of athlete's foot called keratotic athlete's foot, which is characterized by thickening, roughness, and desquamation of the skin on the soles, edges of the feet, and heels. The scales are in flakes or small dots and fall off repeatedly. You can use 150 grams of soybeans and about one kilogram of water, cook on low heat for about 20 minutes, and use it to soak your feet when the water temperature is suitable for washing feet. You can soak for a while. It is very effective in treating athlete's foot. It prevents feet from peeling and keeps the skin moisturized. Generally, washing for a few days will have an effect.

3. There is another more common type of athlete's foot, which is caused by excessive secretion of sweat glands on the soles of the feet. Foot sweat is related to genetics, endocrine disorders, mental stress, emotions, etc. Grind alum into fine powder and rub it on the soles of your feet three or four times for ten minutes. Your feet will no longer sweat or smell. The effect can last for several months.

4. The last type is blister-type athlete's foot. This type of athlete's foot appears between the toes, on the edges of the feet, and on the soles of the feet. It is the size of rice grains and is distributed sparsely or in groups. The blister walls are thick, are not easy to heal, and recur repeatedly. Pour one pound of rice vinegar into a basin and soak or wash your body in it twice a day for about an hour each time. It can reduce inflammation and kill bacteria, it is simple and effective.

After reading the above content, I believe that everyone now has a general understanding of the treatment of athlete's foot.
