Soaking feet is helpful for people with beriberi, but the temperature of hot water can only inhibit but not kill fungi, and can only cure the symptoms rather than the root cause. Even if the water temperature is too high, it will destroy the protective layer of skin tissue and help fungi grow.
For people with beriberi, foot soaking is still advocated, which is helpful for the absorption of follow-up drugs. But the water temperature should not be too high, which will destroy the skin barrier and provide conditions for the reproduction of fungi. Don't soak for too long.
Pay attention to the cleanliness of feet in daily life, change shoes and socks frequently, and don't share footbath and foot towel with others to keep feet dry.
The fungus that causes beriberi is not easy to be eliminated. If you don't see any improvement, stop taking the medicine immediately.
