What causes pustules on feet?

The foot is an important part of the human body. It is said that people’s feet age first. In fact, this is because many people in real life do not pay attention to taking care of their feet. For example, many people fail to pay attention to pustules on their feet and allow them to expand indiscriminately. So what are the causes of pustules on feet? What factors are related to the formation of pustules? What should we do if this happens? Let us take a brief look at this article and hope it will be helpful to everyone.

1. What should I do if I have a boil on my foot?

The symptom of pustules on the feet is mainly due to the presence of some blood poisoning and blood heat in the body. It accumulates in the body and when stimulated by external factors, it will flow to the extremities of the body.

This can cause symptoms in the hands or feet.

Dyshidrosis, also known as sweating disorder rash, is a type of skin eczema that occurs symmetrically on the sides of the hands or feet. It is a blistering skin disease that occurs on the palms and soles. The main reason for the repeated recurrence of dyshidrotic eczema is that some patients do not pay attention to it in the early stage, or use hormone drugs. Since hormone drugs are effective very quickly, patients are misled into thinking that they are cured. Once the hormone effect wears off, the disease will relapse again. Long-term use of hormone drugs will also cause dependence on hormones, leading to repeated attacks and even worsening of symptoms.

Considering that it is caused by athlete's foot, you should remember to change your shoes every day. Currently, the best treatment method is a combination of internal and external medications. Oral medications include Lamisil, Sporanox, etc. There are relatively more types of topical medications, which are generally available in pharmacies. The oral dosage is generally one week, and for more severe cases it can be taken for two weeks. Most patients can be cured in this way, but whether the disease will recur in the future depends on your daily care. People who suffer from athlete's foot are susceptible to fungi, and if they do not pay attention after being cured, they are likely to relapse. Remember to change your shoes every day. It is best to wear two pairs in turn. Keep your shoes dry. Place them in a ventilated place after coming back every day and wear them the next day.

If the australia is small and grows in an unimportant part, you can first soak the needle (the kind used for sewing clothes) in alcohol to disinfect it, then take it out with tweezers, put on disposable gloves, gently wipe the australia with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol, and then puncture the australia with a sterilized needle (don't puncture too deep), and finally use a cotton ball coated with hydrogen peroxide to gently smear the punctured australia, so that you can suck out a lot of pus. After sucking out some pus, wipe it clean with a cotton ball soaked in hydrogen peroxide again until the pus is completely discharged. Just wait until the abscess stops discharging pus and dries up naturally. Be careful not to let your wound get wet, otherwise it will become inflamed. You can also wrap it with gauze, but I suggest you not to do so, mainly because I am worried about infection. The weather has been hot and humid recently, and wrapping the wound may cause infection because bacteria can easily multiply in an anaerobic environment.

2. What is the cause of pustules on the feet?

Acne is the most likely possibility. This disease is also called acne. It is generally manifested by papules, pustules, papulovesicles, and erythema. It is usually related to endocrine, diet, oily skin and other factors. During the period of pustules, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment with acne needles. After the operation, use Bactroban externally, and you can take doxycycline orally at the same time.

, special attention should be paid to: eat less spicy food, fatty meat, sweets, etc.; eat more vegetables and fruits; do not squeeze the acne area, otherwise it may cause pigmentation or scars.

For abscesses, that is, abscesses that have already grown pus, they must be treated in time to clean out the pus, otherwise it will leave marks. As for the cleaning part, you can buy an acne needle and do it yourself. If you don’t know how to do it yourself, it’s best to find a professional beautician to help you. After cleaning, just apply some medical alcohol to disinfect it. It will form a scab in 1 day. Don't worry about it and it will heal in 2-3 days. Also, don't squeeze the ones that are only red but have no pus. They are not ripe yet and squeezing them is useless! I have to remind you that the area around the nose is a dangerous triangle area. Don't squeeze it too hard, as it may cause purulent fluid to flow back into the cranial cavity. Squeezing gently will not be a problem.

Generally, subcutaneous suppuration is caused by infection, and several factors may be involved in its formation. Excessive secretion of sebaceous glands is one of the reasons. At the same time, the body's resistance is weak, and bacterial infections cannot be eliminated in time, so pustules are formed. Moreover, the skin is not cleaned thoroughly, which makes it easy to get infected with bacteria. It may also be related to increased blood sugar. It may not necessarily be diabetes, but increased blood sugar can lead to repeated and stubborn infections. I suggest you go to the hospital's dermatology or general surgery department. The aseptic treatment effect of general doctors will be much better.
