DON'T GOOGLE!

Do your feet sweat alot?
Do you wear socks?
What kind of shoes do you wear?

George

Talk to your pharmasist as i am sure they will be able to point you in the right direction.


And NO googling!

No my feet dont sweat much at all i have been to pharmasist and used some type of chrystals that you desolve in the water this was from a chiropodist (spelling poor)! but nothing seems to work! i tend to wear sensible with shoes in the day as i am scared of getting sore feet (did when i was younger) so leather and i do wear cotton socks but hey they still smell! it may seem like a strange anxiety but i am concerend!

Found this tip for you to try!

Soak your feet every day for a week in strong black tea for 30 minutes. Add two tea bags in a pint of water. Boil it for 10 minutes. Now add two quarts of cool water and soak your feet in the cool solution.
