虽然冰醋酸确实可以杀菌,却无法杀死霉菌,而香港脚药水之所以含冰醋酸,则是由于有些香港脚患者的脚有被搔破皮的伤口,为避免细菌感染,才掺了冰醋酸来杀菌。

Q:霉菌如何导致香港脚发生?
A:假想有一只足癣菌从空气中飘到你潮湿又温暖的脚,一到了目的地,他就会开始孵化,
...
第一个是这只菌的生长率,第二个是表皮的新陈代谢的周转率。
...
假定足癣菌的生长率比表皮脱落的速度快,那表示他会长期的生存下来,但是如果是表皮新陈代谢较快,他就会Game over。

泡醋 可溶解黴菌所在的皮膚角質,但濃度不好掌握,如果濃度太高,腳會爛掉;
赤腳在炎熱的沙灘走 沙灘的高溫可保持乾爽,但無法殺死黴菌,若溫度可殺死黴菌,皮膚也會燙傷

What is it?
Athlete’s foot is a fungal infection. It can lead to intense itching, cracked, blistered or peeling areas of skin, redness and scaling. It can occur on moist, waterlogged skin especially between the fourth and fifth toes, or on dry, flaky skin around the heels or elsewhere on the foot.

Alternative treatments
[edit] Topical oils
Symptomatic relief from itching may be achieved after topical application of tea tree oil or crocodile oil, probably due to its involvement in the histamine response,[19] however the efficacy of Tea tree oil in the treatment of athlete's foot (achieving mycological cure) is questionable.[20][21]
[edit] Onion extract
A study of the effect of 3% (v/v) aqueous onion extract was shown to be effective in laboratory conditions against Trichophyton mentagrophytes and T. rubrum.[22]
[edit] Garlic extract
Ajoene, a compound found in garlic, is sometimes used to treat athlete's foot.[23]
[edit] Rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide and vinegar
Direct application of rubbing alcohol and/or hydrogen peroxide after bathing can aid in killing the fungus at the surface level of the skin and will help prevent a secondary (bacterial) infection from occurring.[citation needed] In addition, soaking the feet in a bath of 70% rubbing alcohol will help dry the skin out, and likewise kill the invading fungus.[citation needed] The alcohol is not, however, effective against spores. Vinegar in some cases has killed the fungus and is effective against spores.
[edit] Hair dryer
Since fungi grow in moist conditions, it is very important to dry the feet well after bathing. A hair dryer can be used to aid the drying process, or to dry feet which have become slightly moist in between showers or baths.[citation needed]
[edit] Baking soda
Rubbing feet with a baking soda paste and/or sprinkling baking soda in shoes is thought to help by changing pH.[24]
[edit] Household bleach (not recommended)

Rub in baking soda. For fungus on your feet, especially between the toes, apply a baking-soda paste, says Suzanne M. Levine, D.P.M., a clinical assistant podiatrist at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. Take 1 tablespoon of baking soda and add a little lukewarm water. Rub that on the site of your fungus, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Finish off the treatment by dusting on cornstarch or powder.
