How to make my feet not stink quickly? would washing with soap be a good idea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few things: Wash your feet with an antibacterial soap. Use absorbent foot powders and antiperspirant sprays. Change sweaty socks midway through your day, and rotate your shoes often. If you have any shoes that are smelly, get rid of them. If these measures do not work, see a podiatrist.
