Smelly Feet/bromodosis

Smelly feet can affect men, women, and children. We have 250, 000 sweat glands in our feet which can produce more than half a litre of sweat in one day.

When the perspiration is unable to evaporate it creates an ideal environment for bacteria or fungus to thrive in. The by  products of the bacteria or fungus is what causes the feet to smell.

Here are some causes of smelly feet:

• Hyperhidrosis (excess sweating)
• Heat
• Emotional stress
• Synthetic fibres
• Shoes
• Covered feet
• Athletes foot
• Infrequent bathing 

Treatment

We need to identify the cause then we can tailor a treatment regime for you. We have a range of foot care products such as the steri-shoe and many other products to help manage the condition.
