    Smelly feet
    To be honest with you its my feet and they even make me feel ill , jeeeez they stink, at this moment in time I'm sat here with my feet in a bowl of hot soapy water with dettol in it and have been doing this many times a day for weeks now, no better what's the cause of this? There is no sign of infection or anything actually wrong, I just can't get the smell to go, its so embarrassing, in the car I darent put the heating on as the smell just riases with the blown air and makes every one ill, I even have to leave any shoes outside the house now its got that bad, I spent all day when in the house bare foot to let the air get at my feet as much as possible but nothing is helping, any ideas please, I know this seems silly but well its so embarrassing and difficult, that it has even stopped me going to friends houses as they like me to remove my shoes, which normally I wouldn't have a problem with but at the moment its way too much

    You probably have a normal foot fungus (athlete's foot possibly). My kids had the same problem for a while .their feet were RANK but didn't itch.anyway, I just bought an over the counter foot spray that says "anti-fungal" or, "kills ...". The brand I got had an active ingredient called Tolnaftate (1%).I thinkit was odor eaters w/ zorbitex. Spray it on a couple times a day, put some in your shoes before putting them on (and at night if you feel like it) for a week or two. That's what I did and it worked for us. Just to mention it, it was contagious. I never thought stinky feet was contagious,but it went from my oldest to her younger sis (there was no mistaking that stank lol)
