Many causes contribute to foot odor, which leads to stink in the shoes. A fungus infection is one of them. The odor in your shoes is caused by bacteria development in the shoe. Because shoes provide a dark, wet, and warm environment for fungus and bacteria to grow, they house both.
An important part of treating the fungal infection of the foot is prescribing an appropriate medication. When treating a fungal infection of the toenails or skin, many doctors overlook the importance of treating the shoes. This can be achieved with a shoe-treating spray, such as Tolcylen shoe spray. There are also UV treatments that can help you get rid of fungus and germs without using chemicals.
