Conditions
Pitted Keratolysis is a bacterial condition affecting the soles of your feet. The group of bacteria that cause this condition thrive in warm and moist conditions and the odour is caused by the bacteria releasing a sulfur compound. You are most at risk of developing pitted keratolysis if you have naturally sweaty feet or regularly wear shoes with limited airflow. It’s most common in people who work in certain occupations where you spend most of the day on your feet such as military personnel, athletes, or farmers. Symptoms include:
In severe cases, pits can form clusters resulting in painful lesions (sores).Pitted keratolysis isn’t contagious and can’t spread from person to person. We can diagnose this condition at Feet First Clinic and prescribe a course of treatment as well as provide advice on footwear and general foot health.
