What complications can beriberi cause and what causes athlete s foot?

The cause of athlete's foot may be related to poor hygiene practices and climate. Among the many factors that induce this disease, personal hygiene is the most important thing, if people do not pay attention to personal hygiene on weekdays, and often wear public slippers in public baths, or like to wear leather shoes all year round, it is very easy to cause this disease. Because the fungus will grow rapidly and be very active in warm and humid conditions, there are many more patients suffering from this disease in the south of China than in the north, which shows that climate is also a key factor leading to this disease.

Athlete's foot, or athlete's foot, is caused by a fungal infection. But beriberi is not, beriberi is a lack of vitamin B1

Beriberi is caused by a fungal infection.

Hello, athlete's foot can cause the following symptoms.

1. Comorbidities include the body combined with the rest of the body **ringworm infection. Due to long-term suffering from tinea pedis or autologous inoculation after hand scratching, patients with tinea pedis may have onychomycosis, tinea manis, jock itch, etc. When onychomycosis is combined, the deck is cloudy, opaque, cloudy, stained, and the surface loses its luster.

2. Tinea pedis combined with bacterial infection. Localized discharge is increased and a yellowish purulent discharge may appear. The infected area is red, swollen, hot, and painful.

If there is no timely and appropriate anti-inflammatory**, lymphangitis, erysipelas, and cellulitis may occur. (1) Acute lymphangitis. Commonly known as the red line, traditional Chinese medicine is the "red line rash", the red is because of the acute inflammation caused by pyogenic bacteria invading the lymphatic vessels from the broken **.

2) Erysipelas. Erysipelas is a relatively serious form of acute inflammation. Erysipelas in the calf area is also known as "flowing fire".

It is caused by the invasion of beta hemolytic streptococci into medium or fine lymphatic vessels, and acute inflammation of lymphatic vessels in subcutaneous tissues and their surrounding soft tissues.

3) Cellulitis. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is called scabies, which is generally caused by secondary streptococcal infection. It can also refer to acute diffuse purulent inflammation of loose connective tissue caused by staphylococcus, Escherichia coli, etc.

This lesion can occur in a superficial part of the country, or it can occur in a deeper part of the subfascia or between the muscles.

3. Ringworm rash. It refers to the systemic or localized** allergic reaction caused by the ringworm and its metabolites outside the lesion through blood circulation. The occurrence of ringworm rash is closely related to the degree of inflammation of local ringworm. The more obvious the local inflammation, the more likely it is that ringworm rash will develop.

1) Dyshidrosis. The onset is acute, and thick-walled blisters the size of mung beans occur on the sides of the fingers, palms or planters, etc., and the blisters are filled with serous fluid and can be dispersed or clustered.

2) Erysipelas-like. The lesions are erysipelas-like erythema, generally not hard, with distinct margins, relatively regular, no or slightly painful sensation, and no lymphangitis. Usually no systemic symptoms.

3) Papular type. It is a sudden onset of cluster papules, maculopapular eruptions, or follicular barbae eruptions. It usually occurs in the extremities or is widespread throughout the body.

4) Eczema type. Eczema-like lesions that occur abruptly on the extremities, especially in the lower extremities, such as large erythema, papules, vesicles, and other polymorphic rashes, are symmetrically distributed.

Hello: First of all, we should pay attention to living habits, wash socks frequently, do not wear the same pair of shoes every day, shoes should be loose and breathable.

Then, use traditional Chinese medicine**: 15g of alum, 30g of Sophora radix, 50g of Gongying, 50g of raw baibu, add 30g of salt, boil for 30 minutes and soak your feet warmly.

Learn

The disease is caused by the fungus (fungus, candida, mold). Sweaty feet or poor ventilation of shoes and socks can induce the disease. **Ringworm is often transmitted through contaminated bathhouses, poolside floors, bath towels, slippers, and footbaths.

Clinical diagnosis

In medicine, there are usually three types of athlete's foot: erosive, blistering, and scaly keratinized athlete's foot.

1。Erosive type

It tends to occur between the third and fourth, and between the fourth and fifth toes. At the beginning, the toes are damp, macerated and whitish, and after drying and desquamation, the skin is peeled off as a moist, flushed erosive surface or accompanied by a tear, with itching, and easy to be infected by secondary infection.

2. Blister type

It is more likely to occur on the edge of the foot and the soles of the feet. At first, the walls are thick and full'Small blisters, some of which can fuse into bullae, have transparent fluid and no redness around them. Feeling itching, after scratching, it often causes erysipelas, lymphangitis, etc. due to secondary infection.

3. Scale keratinized type

It is more likely to occur in the heel and foot margin. Due to fungal infection, it is dry, keratin, scaling, and prone to chapping. This type has no blisters and suppuration, the course of the disease is slow, and it does not heal for many years, and most patients are transformed by erosion type and blister type.

The main reason why athlete's foot is often reversed

I heard many beriberi patients complain that after getting beriberi, they can't be cured after several treatments, and they will always ** after a period of time. There are four main reasons why athlete's foot is reversed:

First, fungi are difficult to kill and can survive for a long time in an environment of about minus 6; In a high temperature of 120 minutes, it will not die in 10 minutes; On hair, nails, dander, etc., which are separated from the living body, the toxicity can be maintained for more than 1 year.

The second point is that some beriberi patients use drugs that inhibit fungi, and stop taking them when the symptoms improve slightly, in fact, the fungus is not completely killed, and after a period of time, it will "come back", resulting in "**".

Third, some patients may get beriberi again because they do not pay attention to sharing slippers, basins, towels and other items with other beriberi patients, or come into contact with fungi on specific occasions such as swimming pools, which is called "reinfection".

Fourth, some patients do not go to the ** department of a regular hospital after getting sick, and buy some anti-inflammatory drugs by themselves, although this can temporarily relieve itching and cause the illusion of disease improvement, but there is no antifungal effect, and the germs cannot be killed, but will be more rampant, and will interfere with or even prevent the local immune response.
