If there is no good foot care and the shoes worn are not breathable, it is easy to cause athlete's foot, which can make people feel embarrassed because the feet emit unpleasant odors, and sometimes the skin on the feet may show signs of damage, ulceration, etc. Due to the influence of hormone secretion, some pregnant women may also develop athlete's foot, but it needs to be treated with caution. So, how to treat athlete's foot in pregnant women?
Pregnant women with athlete's foot can be treated by soaking their feet, for example, soaking their feet in ginger water, slicing the ginger and boiling it in a pot, then controlling the water temperature to around 40 degrees Celsius, and then putting the feet in, which can effectively improve ulceration and itching. After soaking, you can apply some products appropriately, mainly to moisturize the foot skin, and try to choose gentle skincare products.
Soaking feet in white vinegar can also remove athlete's foot. White vinegar has the effect of disinfection and sterilization, and has a certain effect on athlete's foot caused by bacterial infection. After washing the feet with hot water, pour in white vinegar and soak for about 15 minutes. If you persist, there will be improvement. Foot odor may be caused by fungal infection, and pregnant women often have blisters on their feet. As the bacteria develop, there may even be erosion and exudation, and the feet may emit a foul odor.
Occasionally, there may be itching symptoms at the affected area of athlete's foot. Pregnant women should be careful not to scratch to prevent the wound from rupturing. While treating athlete's foot, they should also pay attention to foot cleanliness, soak their feet frequently, keep the foot skin dry, and regularly change and wash shoes and socks to avoid wearing non breathable shoes and socks.
