How to treat bromhidrosis with cirrhosis of liver?

Condition analysis:
 Actually, regardless of what others have posted. Your friend may be just unhygienic. Cirrhosis, which is the very end stage of liver disease cause many problems with chemicals in the body, to include the brain. Most people with cirrhosis start to feel tired and lethargic and don't shower as often or lose a sense of proper hygiene. This is very common. They actually don't realize they have forgotten about their hygiene until they are reminded.

Now they do turn yellow, like the one person suggested, but that is caused by jaundice, and it does not omit a smell. Fetor Hepaticus on the other hand does. This is a very late sign of liver failure and most assuredly is a fatal sign. It is also known as the breath of the dead. The reason being is it happens when a person with liver problems is dying or is very near death. This smell however is usually a pungent smell. It is very strong and noticeable.

If your friend has this smell, he should seek medical attention immediately. Especially with cirrhosis. Any change in normal behavior with a cirrhosis patient should be evaluated.

Instructions:
1. Baking Soda Soak:
Use one tablespoon of baking soda in one quart of warm water. Ensure that the soda is dissolved, and then soak your feet for 15 minutes at a time. Sodium Bicarbonate or baking soda will make the surface of your feet more acidic, which will in turn cut down on bacteria and odor.

2. Rice Water Soak:
Put plain rice (not minute rice but regular) in water for half an hour. You can drain the rice out or leave in, but the point is to use the rice water as a foot soak and an effective foot odor remedy.

3. Apple Cider Vinegar Soak:
Dilute 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar for every 2 cups of warm water that you use. Soak your feet in the solution and the vinegar will inhibit bacterial growth and reduce foot odor production. Like the salt soak, if you aren’t going anywhere, don’t rinse your feet, just pat dry. It is better to leave the solution on your feet for as long as you can.
