? Sweaty feet are more prone to cracking. Usually we think that sweaty feet are always wet and should not crack in a humid environment. However, some people, especially women and the elderly, often crack and even bleed, accompanied by pain and suffering.
To sum up, there are several reasons:
One of the reasons: local hyperhidrosis, popularly speaking, is hyperhidrosis, which is more common in teenagers, regardless of gender. Local hyperhidrosis is common in palms, soles, armpits, nasal tip, forehead, genitals and other parts. For feet, usually at the heel, it is easy to peel and crack. It is generally believed that local hyperhidrosis is often accompanied by peripheral blood circulation dysfunction, such as wet and cold skin of hands and feet, blue or pale skin, frostbite and cracking.
Solution: Exercise properly, change shoes and socks frequently, keep your feet transparent and dry, and keep them moist and lubricated. You can properly apply emulsion to the parts that are easy to crack.
The second reason: bacterial or fungal infection.
In layman's terms, it is infected with beriberi. Mainly manifested as blisters, frequent wet friction, easy erosion, itching, foot odor, peeling, cracking and so on.
Solution: Treat beriberi mainly. Generally, beriberi is a fungal infection, which can be treated with antifungal drugs, such as dyclonine and dexamethasone ointment. However, it should be noted that the treatment cycle must be sufficient. Under the guidance of doctors, oral itraconazole and other antifungal drugs can be used for treatment, and the effect is good.
The third reason: sweaty feet are more likely to lose water.
Sweaty feet? What is the heat loss rate? Dry feet? It's nearly 20 times faster. Is it easy? Air dry? Even suffered from frostbite, especially in the cold winter. When this happens, the human body will automatically close the circulatory system of superficial skin, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the feet. Insufficient blood supply means that the skin tissue around the foot is prone to necrosis, leading to foot cracking.
This reason is different from the local hyperhidrosis that usually occurs in women and the elderly, and may be related to insufficient blood supply, which may be explained by TCM as deficiency of qi and blood.
Solution: You can soak your feet with warm water at night to increase blood circulation. At the same time, keep your feet warm.
Spleen and stomach are the source of qi and blood biochemistry. You can eat more ingredients such as pumpkin, yam, lotus seeds, lentils and barley to strengthen the spleen and stomach. Pay attention to avoid the intrusion of cold evil, which mainly comes from two aspects: one is catching cold, such as taking a cold bath, washing cold water and blowing air conditioning; Second, from the diet, we mainly eat cold food, such as cold drinks and chilled fruits.
