There appears to be alot of hype and misinformation surrounding Athlete's Foot treatments. In reality, fungus is a relatively simple organism. Fungus, which exists "externally" on the skin, grows when incubated in warm moist environments.Thus, the reason why it is typically found between the toes.

People typically contract a fungal infection when in public areas like gym showers, locker rooms and other areas where fungus can grow. Avoid walking barefoot in "high-traffic" areas that are moist and warm. Some people contract fungal infections by sharing towels, socks or other personal items.

The "key" to treating Athlete's Foot is adhering to a treatment plan. Read carefully:

Athletes Foot Treatment

1. Keep toes apart using cotton or soft objects. (Let air pass between the toes, this allows drying to occur)
2. Apply a strong "anti fungal" product to the affected areas. (Effective products are high in "anti-fungal" properties [noting else really matters]).
3. If infected, apply a topical antibiotic. (Buy a "generic" brand they all are the same).
4. Remove dead or scaled skin for maximum treatment benefit. (Topical products need to penetrate the skin, dead or calloused skin is a barrier - make sure you wash up with soap and warm water and put affected cloths in the wash).
5. Keep affected areas clean and dry. (Critical: even the best products won't work completely if you are "breeding" fungus).
7. Change your socks regularly to decrease moisture. (Make sure you ARE NOT sharing towels, socks or other personal items).
8. Ware sandals or open toed shoes if possible. This may require a lifestyle adjustment. (Under utilized: most people do not realize you cannot wear "tennis shoes" and heavy socks [which restrict air circulation] and expect fungal infections to clear up).

In short, sun and air help dry Athletes Foot and other fungus. Fungus is incubated and encouraged to grow in moist humid and warm conditions. There are many "anti fungal" products that DO NOT work. The key to effective products is the potency of anti-fungal ingredients. Make sure they are backed by research.
