Plantar keratolysis is a common dermatological condition that affects the skin of the feet, particularly the sole. It is characterised by the appearance of small whitish or yellowish spots on the surface of the skin, which may gradually become larger and develop a leathery appearance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are the causes of plantar keratolysis?<\/h2>\n

The exact cause of plantar keratolysis is not yet fully understood, but it is believed to be associated with excessive bacterial growth in the affected area. The moisture and heat present inside the footwear can create an ideal environment for bacteria to proliferate, which in turn can damage keratin, a protein present in the skin.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are the symptoms of plantar keratolysis?<\/h2>\n

Typical symptoms of plantar keratolysis include itching, burning, pain and unpleasant foot odour<\/strong>. Whitish or yellowish spots may appear crumbled or have irregular edges. The condition tends to occur more frequently in people who spend a lot of time in closed or tight shoes, especially during the summer months.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How to treat plantar keratolysis?<\/h2>\n

To treat plantar keratolysis, it is important to take a number of preventive and curative measures. First of all, it is advisable to keep the feet clean and dry by avoiding wearing tight or synthetic footwear. It is preferable to use breathable footwear and socks made of natural fibres that absorb moisture. It is also advisable to change socks and shoes regularly, especially if you sweat a lot.<\/p>\n

As for treatment, specific products can be used, such as antifungal creams or lotions, which help reduce bacterial proliferation and restore skin balance. Among the products available on the market, those of the Oncos brand can offer valuable support, such as the hand, foot and nail cream<\/a> specially formulated to fight fungal and bacterial infections and help reduce itching..<\/p>\n

It is also advisable to consult a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and customised treatment. In some cases, topical or oral medication may be necessary to fight the infection and reduce inflammation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
