What is the reason for children's feet odor? Four reasons tell you

Do not use medicine to treat children's smelly feet at will, otherwise it will be very detrimental to the child's physical health and growth. Don't use children's tender skin for drug testing. Washing feet is not the key issue. It depends on the age of the child and the specific problem should be analyzed specifically. Don't act recklessly. So, what is the reason for children's smelly feet?

1. Stuffy and enclosed space: When shoes are worn tightly and have poor ventilation, in addition to increasing moisture, the pH value on the skin surface will change from the original pH 4.4 to around pH 7, and carbon dioxide gas will be released. This environment is most suitable for the growth of certain bacteria on the soles of the feet.

2. Bacterial reproduction: Due to the additive effect of one or two factors, bacteria grow on the skin of the feet. These bacteria can decompose the keratin of the skin and the urea and lactic acid components in foot sweat to form various metabolites with odor.

3. Fungal reproduction : A hot and humid environment will cause fungi to grow and form tinea pedis, commonly known as athlete's foot. The symptoms of athlete's foot are very diverse, and not all athlete's feet have a bad smell. The type of athlete's foot that is most likely to cause foot odor is the type where the skin between the toes is wet and rotten, and the foot odor is the most serious.

4. Excessively thick old keratin: Excessively thick old keratin, under the infiltration of sweat, will become a source of nutrition required by bacteria and mold, promote the proliferation and reproduction of bacteria and mold, and worsen the formation of foot odor.
