Athletes Foot & Fungal Infections
If you experience an itchy, sore sensation between your toes this can often be athlete’s foot. It also appears on the sole of the feet as dry scaly patches sometimes with no itchiness as the skin is much thicker on the plantar aspect of the feet. This is a fungal infection that can be easily brought under control with anti-fungal ointments available at Supplefeet.
Always remember the three rules of feet
- Wash feet well and daily (simply soap suds on the shower won't do!)
- Use a foot moisturiser -
- Change shoes and socks frequently
Treatment: Use a good anti-fungal ointment.
