What could u do to control athlete feet or foot fungus?

Question

I've been having this prob. for a while and I'm trying to find some way to control it. I hate to have hard skin on the heel of my foot.

Answer 1

lamisil is the best. and towel dry ur feet properly after shower.

Answer 2

I don't know about your heel. Athlete's foot is usually between your toes. I had it until I started taking vitamin C every day.

Now I have a different sort of problem--a fungal infection on the palms of my hands. The best thing I've found for it is Lotrimin Ultra. It's not cheap, but you can use a very thin coating of the stuff and it works just as well as smearing a thick layer on.

Answer 3

The fungi thrive in warm, moist, dark environs.
Simply going barefoot until your feet are really super dry, after being in an area where you believe the fungus might be, will GREATLY reduce if not eliminate your chances of contracting the athlete's foot fungus. Better yet, simply skip shoes altogether. For more info. on better health by barefooting, look at:

Answer 4

Well here goes: First of all if you have a bath or shower mat, bleach it or pour a mixture of water and peroxide on it and rinse good after about 5 minutes, if they are farely old mat's get rid of them. Try to wear cotton socks and well ventilated shoes. Change socks often, more than daily if you can. Wash feet very well, dry well and you can try Fungi CURE or try Tinaction. Myself I like the gel form of Fungi CURE and the spray form of Tinactin.

I go barefoot most of the time at home, I got mine cleared up and if I notice any itch I apply a thin coat of the jel.

I wish you all the best... Good luck to you ... There are also powders may not hurt to make sure shoes are dry good and powder them also ....

Answer 5

You need to invest in an antifungal cream/spray(such as lotrimin af).Clean your feet constantly with hot water and antibacterial soap,dry them thoroughly,then apply the solution.Try to keep your footsies in open shoes,wear dry,clean socks.

Answer 6

Its common and there is loads of different creams available to help stop it. Soak your feet in warm water with salt or antiseptic wash. Should help heal it. Hope that helps!

Answer 7

You need a topical anti-fungal, ask your pharmacist or you mayneed to see a dermatologist or family doc. Then keep your feet clean and dry.

Answer 8

I'm using Clotrimazole powder its quite good, you can get it from the nearest Pharmacy, but be sure to check with your doc beforehand, never buy anything before you get a go from him.
