Athlete’s foot develops as an irritation of the skin due to a fungal infection, typically between the toes and on the bottom of the foot. It often occurs when there is an excess of sweat or moisture inside your socks and shoes. The first step in treating athlete’s foot is ensuring that the environment of your shoes is dry. If needed, change your socks a few times a day. After that, it’s important to apply some sort of antifungal treatment, such as a topical powder or liquid. I’m Dr. Eman Elmi, and thank you for watching. If you’d like to learn more about me or Diablo Foot and Ankle, please check us out online at diablofootandankle.com or on YouTube.
