Why Foot Odor Happens

Foot odor is caused by:

✔️ Sweat
✔️ Bacteria
✔️ Dead skin
✔️ Closed shoes

Young men sweat more.

Older men may struggle with:

• Reaching feet
• Drying properly
• Circulation issues

Odor is not laziness — it is biological.

Daily Routine

✔️ Wash feet with antibacterial soap
✔️ Dry completely (especially between toes)
✔️ Apply foot antiperspirant (night)
✔️ Use antifungal powder (morning)
✔️ Wear clean breathable socks

Weekly Routine

✔️ Soak feet in vinegar solution
(1 part vinegar, 2 parts warm water)

✔️ Exfoliate dead skin
✔️ Check for cracks or peeling

Shoe Care

✔️ Rotate shoes daily
✔️ Disinfect weekly
✔️ Use odor absorbers

When to See a Doctor

Seek help if:

• Odor persists
• Skin peels or cracks
• Nails change color

May indicate fungal or bacterial infection.

Bottom Line

Foot odor can be controlled with:

Moisture control
Bacteria control
Shoe hygiene

Consistency matters more than products.
