Her mother is now warning all parents to take this precaution.
“If we take cultures of all of our feet, 100% of us will have bacteria on them at the present time,” says Dr. Schaffner. “So let's not implicate the shoe or the shoe store as the source of the bacteria, but rather let’s focus on the important thing—which is to pay attention any time, anywhere we have a break in the skin.”
For that reason, he’s all in favor of wearing socks while shopping for shoes. Even those thin nylon foot protectors are better than nothing, he says. If a cut, a blister, or an insect bite becomes red, swollen, or develops a pussy discharge, see a doctor right away, says Dr. Schaffner. Even then, chances are it’s a local infection that can be treated quickly with antibiotics—but make sure to tell your doctor if you’re experiencing any strange symptoms that could indicate a more widespread problem.
