The older generation said, "It's good for beriberi to walk in the soil." Is there any scientific reason?

It is because others are infected or they don't pay attention to hygiene, or it may be caused by wearing airtight shoes for a long time.

Beriberi is caused by dermatophytes (fungi). Fungi like humid and warm environment. When the skin is always moist, the epidermis, especially the soles of the feet, is most likely to produce fungi, and beriberi is easy to be infected. If you use shoes and socks of beriberi patients, it is easy to get beriberi. Patients with beriberi had better wear air shoes and socks in their lives to reduce the sultry skin of their feet. Berberi needs timely treatment to reduce cross-infection and complications. The following suggestions are for your reference.

1, beriberi (beriberi) is mainly treated locally.

2. Choose the right medicine to treat beriberi. Athlete's foot is caused by fungi, and can be externally applied with Zuyishu, 1-2 times a day, and can be eradicated in about 4 weeks. People with severe tinea pedis can take antifungal drugs orally.

3. Don't stop taking medicine by yourself. Whether itching is relieved or not cannot be regarded as the standard of cure, but drugs should be used to kill fungi.

4. During the treatment, the replaced socks, underwear and bedding should be scalded with hot water (above 60℃) to reduce the possibility of infection.

Ok, I'm done introducing names. What kind of environment can cause beriberi? We can imagine what kind of environment the athlete's feet will be in: after exercise, the feet will sweat and form a wet environment, while the feet will heat and form a warm atmosphere, while the feet will be in a warm and wet environment. In this environment, the filamentous fungi on the feet like it very much and are nutritious (the cuticle on the feet is very thick), so that the fungi will soon parasitize on the feet.

Where is the infection site of beriberi?

Generally speaking, beriberi is the first foot to get sick, because fungi are contagious and will spread to the other foot after a period of time. Toes usually occur first, and then slowly develop to other parts of the foot. In severe cases, erosion and desquamation are very tragic.

Never mind how it came from, it must be cured!

Don't expect beriberi to heal itself, really. Is beriberi caused by fungi or the kind with strong viability? You can live on rags or tiles for a while. Fungi must be treated with fungicides. Plus antibacterial. You have to see a doctor and listen to his diagnosis. ?

Random talk: how athlete's foot is formed is so much. No matter what kind of beriberi it is, it is recommended to see a doctor as soon as possible without delay. Don't try to treat beriberi casually, so as not to affect the doctor's judgment.
