Have you ever noticed itchy, peeling skin between your toes? You could be dealing with athlete’s foot, one of the most common fungal infections that targets the feet. But don’t worry—it's not as bad as it sounds, and it’s highly treatable.
What causes it?
Athlete's foot thrives in warm, moist environments like locker rooms, swimming pools, or even inside your sweaty shoes. If your feet aren't getting enough air, fungus can develop, causing that annoying itch and redness.
How to treat athlete's foot
The good news is you can treat it! Over-the-counter antifungal creams are usually enough to get rid of it. But, don't stop too soon! Even if the symptoms disappear, keep applying the cream for a few days to make sure the infection is fully gone. In more stubborn cases, you might need to visit a podiatrist for stronger medication.
How to prevent it
Once you’ve had athlete’s foot, you’ll want to avoid getting it again. Keep your feet dry by changing socks often, airing out your shoes, and choosing breathable footwear. And, of course, don’t forget to wear flip-flops in public showers!
