Wet feet can predispose a person to the development of a deadly heart disease known as infective endocarditis.

The professor's interview explained the connection that may exist between wet feet and dangerous heart disease . The doctor noted that hypothermia and dampness adversely affect the human body, including the condition of the myocardium. Soaked feet are directly related to this.

“Infective endocarditis, which develops in hypothermia and dampness, was formerly known as 'trench disease.' This is precisely to the question of wet feet. This pathology can also develop at home, it is unpleasant and difficult. Sometimes it's fatal,” the doctor said.

Also, according to the scientist, under the influence of humidity, inflammatory processes in internal organs can develop in the form of streptococcal infections, which have worsened. One of the consequences is rheumatism, rheumatic attacks, affected organs, for example, kidneys or heart.

In the case of wet feet, the doctor advised not to allow freezing – the limbs should be dried and warmed as soon as possible. The professor called thick “biting” woolen socks the best means for this.
