Why would I have athlete's foot I don't even go outside much
Athlete's Foot is a fungal infection that grows in moist environments. It's common in athletes because of their sweaty feet, socks and footwear.
Anyone who has bad foot hygiene can get it however. This includes having sweaty unwashed feet as well as shoes and socks that are dirty or wet.
You can buy anti-fungal Athlete's Foot medicine over the counter, which can be creams, powders, sprays or soaps.
You can also be prescribed anti-fungal medicine from a doctor.
Wash and dry your feet before applying the medicines.
Continue to use the treatments after the rash disappears to ensure its gone. Read the leaflets for a timescale.
Try to avoid scratching as the fungus is transferable to other people and parts of your body.
Wash your hands after touching the infected sites.
To keep clean and prevent future infections always keep your feet clean and dry.
If you go swimming or have a shower then dry your feet thoroughly before putting on shoes.
Always use clean dry socks, and try to avoid sharing socks with others.
Avoid walking barefoot in public/communal showers/gyms.
Avoid sharing towels with other people.
Use Talcum powder on your feet to stop them getting sweaty.
Don't be embarrassed about it though, it's really common and easy to get. Some people are also more susceptible than others.
