What causes Athlete’s Foot?

Athlete’s Foot (known in the medical world as, tinea pedis) is a skin infection on the feet or toes that is caused by a group of fungi called dermatophytes. They thrive in warm, moist environments like showers, shoes, socks and your feet. This condition can usually be found between your toes, but it can also appear on the soles and sides of your feet.

Symptoms

Itching and/or burning sensation on your toes and feet
Very dry, scaly, cracked or peeling skin
Softening and whitening of the skin between toes
Split skin
Cracking skin on the sole or heels
Smelly feet

Treatment and Prevention

Athlete’s foot can spread easily and cause symptoms that are irritating and uncomfortable, but it can be easily treated and prevented.

Apply a topical treatment - Antifungal treatments penetrate the skin and attack the fungi that causes the infection to relieve symptoms
Avoid walking barefoot - When walking around changing rooms, showers and pools, ensure you wear some kind of footwear such as flip-flops or sandals
Always dry your feet carefully -Ensure they are thoroughly dry, especially between your toes
Wear clean socks every day - Change them during the day if it is hot or after playing sports
Choose your socks carefully - Cotton, silk and wool socks are better than synthetic materials
Remove your shoes at home - To let your feet ‘breathe’
Wash towels frequently and do not share them - To prevent the spread of skin infections
