What can i do to avoid horrible odor on my feet?

Tea soaks: You actually take tea bags, place in warm water and soak. There are commercial products as well. If they smell because they sweat excessively, you would want to control the sweating. (the tea soaks will do this as well.).

Control sweating: You need to control the moisture problems with your feet. Generally feet smell when they stay wet and develop fungal issues. Antifungal powders or at least a foot powder to help with the moisture.
