Stinky Preschool Boy Feet

T.,

One of my kids had the smelliest feet. OMG it was awful. What made matters worse, this was my baby girl.

I was talking one day to a friend of mine who is from Nigeria and he said he had smelly feet as a child. His mother put Epsom Salt in his bath water two - three times a week and no more smelly feet.

To my surprise...it worked!! I did this for about 6 months and to date the smelly feet have not returned and it's been a good 16 years since.

Hope this helps!!

Hi T.,
I like the Epsom idea; much easier. I heard from a friend that she had bad smelly feet and had a Dr tell her to soak her feet in water with tea bags for a little while once/week. It worked. But for kids, the Epsom in the bath sounds great and easy!

My 25 year old has always had stinky feet from about the age of 12. He puts odor-eaters in his shoes and it helps alot.

I have also heard that soaking your feet in tea(cold or hot) really helps. I haven't gotten him to try that but maybe someone else out there has some experience with that.

Good Luck

Hi T. - We always put baking soda in my son's shoes when he was a teen. It absorbs odor and also helps to keep feet dry. Whatever you use, be sure that it is as natural as possible without any chemicals, as the products we use are absorbed into our bodies through the skin.
