摘要:
Athlete's foot, or tinea pedis, is a fungal infection that commonly affects active individuals. Intense itching is the primary symptom. Rash distribution, degree of redness, type of scaling, and presence of vesicles can distinguish athlete's foot from inflammatory conditions, but there is much overlap in presentation. Antifungal creams, used consistently for a period of weeks, are generally effective; in certain cases, keratolytics or oral antifungals are necessary. Educating patients about medication use, appropriate footwear, and avoiding excessive heat and moisture can help keep the condition in tow.
