Unpleasant to see and uncomfortable to deal with, this is a problem that\u2019s best put behind you sooner rather than later. Here\u2019s all you need to know about this fungal infection and how to treat it.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Is Athlete&#8217;s Foot?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Athlete&#8217;s Foot also known as tinea pedis, is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clocip.com\/blogs\/what-is-a-fungal-infection-and-what-are-its-types\">type of fungal infection<\/a> that occurs on your feet. It typically first appears in the space between your toes, as a result of constant sweating in the area, either from wearing very tight shoes or hygiene issues like reusing socks or wearing damp sweaty shoes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Are The Symptoms Of Athlete&#8217;s Foot?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here are the typical signs of Athlete\u2019s Foot:<\/p>\n<ul>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Scaly red rash, usually starting in the gaps between toes<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Itchiness in the feet, worse in the moments after removing socks and shoes<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ulcers\/blisters may also develop for some people<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Scaliness spreading to the sides of the foot<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chronic dryness of the skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Causes Of Athlete&#8217;s Foot<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You could catch Athlete&#8217;s Foot from contact with objects(like shoes or towels) used by other infected individuals. Those with weakened immune systems or health problems like diabetes may be more vulnerable, especially if there are sores or any kind of open cuts or wounds on the feet.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Treatment For Athlete&#8217;s Foot<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best way to get rid of Athlete&#8217;s Foot is to use an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clocip.com\/products\/anti-fungal-skin-relief-dusting-powder\">antifungal powder<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clocip.com\/products\/antifungal-clotrimazole-cream\">antifungal cream <\/a>for the feet to stop the problem in its tracks. Clocip dusting powder, an antifungal foot powder helps dry your feet and soak up excessive moisture while thwarting fungal growth. Among <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clocip.com\/products\/anti-fungal-skin-relief-cream\">antifungal ointments<\/a>, Clocip cream is an effective antifungal remedy that you just need to apply to your feet as recommended until the fungal infection is fully treated. This antifungal ointment destroys the fungal cell membrane, killing the infection-causing fungus and relieving you of your symptoms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Also, be sure to follow these simple steps to avoid spreading the Athlete&#8217;s Foot or catching it again:<\/p>\n<ul>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Avoid sharing footwear, socks, towels, or other clothing with someone who has a fungal infection.&nbsp;<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dry your feet well every time you wash them, taking extra care to wipe well between the toes. Keep a separate towel for wiping your feet to avoid spreading the infection.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Avoid wearing closed shoes at home, to give your feet time to air. Even outside, never wear shoes that are tight or make your feet sweat.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Use a fresh pair of socks and avoid reusing them. Cotton is ideal.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"white-space:pre;\"><\/span>Don\u2019t scratch the infected skin, you may wind up spreading the fungal infection to other parts of your body.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Used correctly along with some basic hygiene care, antifungal treatments can help you be free of Athlete&#8217;s Foot for good.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Don\u2019t allow Athlete&#8217;s Foot to linger or spread &#8211; treat it swiftly and effectively with a sound antifungal remedy like Clocip cream or Clocip dusting powder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Athlete&#8217;s Foot can leave your feet looking and feeling worse for wear.
