Having smelly feet can be very uncomfortable for both adults and children. Also known as Bromodosis, this is a medical condition that is caused by a buildup of sweat, which causes bacteria growth on the skin and thereby leads to a bad odor. Also, another reason for smelly feet is when you have a fungal infection.
When you realize you have smelly feet, there are some common mistakes people do that instead cause the smell to last and even become permanent which is not good at all, especially for ladies. Note that, everyone’s feet sweat, but teenagers and pregnant women are most prone to very sweaty feet because their bodies produce hormones that make them sweat more.
