擺脫腳臭困擾
李小姐：「有天下雨，回到公司想把濕透的鞋子脫掉，竟發現自己有腳臭，害我一直不敢離開座位，我是否有香港腳？」
CheckCheckCin：腳臭不一定患有「香港腳」，「香港腳」是足癬，即真菌感染性皮膚病，腳會出現水泡、痕癢、脫皮、刺痛等症狀。腳臭情況很普遍，因腳部有大量汗腺，流汗之多不輸腋下位置，腳汗本沒有味道，但當遇上細菌與黴菌繁殖，令角質蛋白分解，就會形成酸臭味。從中醫角度來看，濕熱體質人士特別容易有腳臭問題，因其汗液比較黃且多帶有臭味，如問題嚴重可諮詢註冊中醫師治理。
擺脫腳臭：
1. 選擇透氣的鞋，穿著有助吸汗的全棉襪，亦不妨在公司多放一對襪以應付下雨天
2. 除鞋後，鞋內放入備長炭或除臭吸濕包
3. 每天回家後立即以肥皂徹底洗腳及泡腳，然後擦乾雙腳
4. 如整天待在家，一天內以肥皂洗腳3-4次，然後擦乾雙腳
5. 改善濕熱體質，適量食用清熱祛濕食物例如薏米、赤小豆、綠豆、苦瓜等
6. 保持雙腳乾爽， 有助殺菌祛濕

Get rid of smelly feet
“It was raining cats and dogs, and when I went back to the office, removed my shoes, I realized I have smelly feet. I don’t even dare to leave my seat after that! Do I have Athlete’s foot?”
CheckCheckCin: Having smelly feet does not mean you have Athlete’s foot. Athlete’s foot is a type of fungal infection that affects the feet, and symptoms include itchy feet, peeling on the feet, pain, and blisters. It is, however, quite common to have smelly feet because we have many sweat glands on our feet, as they sweat as much as our armpits.
Likewise, the sweat from our feet does not give out a bad odor. The odor actually comes from the bacteria and mold that multiply on our feet and break down the protein molecules of the skin.
From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, people with a damp heat body constitution are more prone to develop smelly feet. The yellow sweat stains they produce carry a bad odor. Individuals with more severe conditions should consult registered and licensed Chinese medicine practitioner.
How to get rid of smelly feet:
1. Wear shoes with good ventilation, 100% cotton socks; put a pair of spare socks in the office just in case your socks get wet in the rain.
2. Put charcoal bags or deodorizer into the shoes when you are not wearing them.
3. Wash and submerge your feet in soap water every day when you get home; remember to wipe them dry after that.
4. If you are home all day, wash your feet with soap 3-4 times each day; remember to dry them after that.
5. Improve the damp heat body constitution by eat ingredients such as barley, adzuki bean, mung bean, and bitter gourd, as they can clear heat and dispel dampness from the body.
6. Keep your feet dry and comfortable all the time, as it can prevent bacterial growth and moisture from accumulating around the feet.
