Best Socks for Eczema

1. What socks are best for eczema?

Socks lined with roughly woven or seamed fabric can be hard on your skin. If you need to wear thick socks for protection under athletic shoes or work boots, wear a thin, smooth sock or sock liner under them. Liners made of polypropylene, Merino wool, silk, or nylon work well

2. Should I wear socks if I have eczema?

A preventive treatment to keep skin hydrated is often recommended. Other treatments are also available if symptoms persist. Whatever the cause, dyshidrosis is aggravated by sweat, which is why we recommend wearing cotton socks for eczema.

3. Does eczema make your feet smell?

Skin conditions such as eczema, dyshidrosis (dyshidrotic eczema), and psoriasis can cause flaking skin between the toes. When combined with sweat or body oil, these skin cells can form tiny, smelly toe jam balls between toes.

4. Are bamboo socks good for eczema?

The processing of bamboo viscose is chemical-intensive and not very environmentally friendly, but the material has the properties that make bamboo an attractive option to people with eczema.
