Athlete’s foot’ is a common fungal infection of the foot; so called because it thrives in the warm, moist darkness of sports shoes, and is typically transmitted in wet communal areas where people walk barefoot, such as showers, gym changing rooms and bathhouses. Also called tinea pedis, it is caused by a group of fungi called dermatophytes, which can affect other parts of the body too (e.g. ‘jock itch’). It is also sometimes called ringworm because it can appear as ring-shaped, scaly patches on the body. Once your feet have been contaminated, the warm, dark and sweaty environment of feet cramped in shoes or trainers provides the ideal breeding ground for the fungus. However, athlete’s foot also occurs in dry, flaky areas. It’s quite common in summer sandal-wearers. The sun makes your skin dry out, so it loses its natural protective oils; this combined with the constant trauma from sandals makes them more prone to infection.Athletes foot medicine major entities are like Disability and Management, Exercise and Trauma
