How does one relieve itchy feet?

Sunshine State yeah right; it downpoured 3 inches in half an hour today. My shoes got soaked, and my feet were soaking in dirty water for about an hour. Went home and immediately showered and all, and I put lotion on my feet and all, but the bottom of my feet is still very itchy. How do I relieve this itch?

bleach and water

POGPLZ

No.

PacingCircles

Yeah, I know it's crazy but actually if you use the right amounts and the right brand, it's incredibly helpful. I do it all the time.

Not enough water will burn her skin and make her smell like dead skin.

PacingCircles

Yup, but she's also smart so I think she can handle it

I also don't know chemistry or biology, so I wouldn't know the correct proportions. Also, I just soaked in vinegar, so soaking in a hydrous bleach solution could cause some violent reactions in my skin. xD

See, you know enough to get by! How are your feet anyway, better?

No, unfortunately not. I tried soaking in diluted vinegar, and that didn't help. I put it in undiluted vinegar, and that only helped while my feet was in the vinegar. As soon as I removed it, it became itchy again. It's not as itchy as before, but it's still itchy. It's in the diluted vinegar bucket again.

That's awful, good luck.

Thanks. I hope it's not a fungal infection. That'd suck.

PacingCircles

Yes it would.

And it's likely to be. Yesterday at the UF tour, it wouldn't have been as bad, since it's not as big of a cesspool as my high school is. My high school is a health inspector's nightmare. Absolutely *filthy* to the point of nearly throwing up. They're renovating it and all, but there are parts they're not going to renovate, and it's just disgusting. Couple that with all the other feet dragging through the water, and all the water drainage from the dirt places and all... and my feet having to soak for half an hour in my soaked shoes until I got home from the bus stop, utter yuck.
