Antifungal Laundry Detergent

That’s to stop getting athletes foot.

The rashes can be caused by fungus, bacteria, or just irritants. Air pollution causes a lot of people to get inflammation and eczema. Docs can check to see what are the causes but usually there is no obvious cause.

Fungus, bacteria, both thrive in heat and moisture. So keeping the skin dry (with the hairdryer trick) reduces inflammation and can stop the microbe/fungus from multiplying.

Good advice. Where I come from the climate is temperate, and by late winter (if not before) the dry air can really fuck up my skin. It helped if, after showering, I avoided the usual towel-dry and kind of half-ass blotted instead, allowing water leftover to absorb slowly into my skin. Helped a lot.

That is a very bad idea in Taiwan, though. Old habits died hard, but I learned my lesson.
