What is athletes foot and how can I treat it?
• Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis) is a condition caused by a contagious foot fungus that most often affects skin between the toes or on the bottoms of the feet. Symptoms such as itching, burning, red, dry, cracked, blistered and oozing skin are signs of athlete’s foot. If you’re prone to athlete’s foot, wash and dry feet thoroughly on a daily basis and apply a foot spray such as Dr. Scholl’s® Foot Spray Powder to absorb perspiration. In addition, be sure to wear clean socks and avoid walking barefoot in public places.
