Athlete's Foot by Product Type
 |
|
Athlete's foot is a common condition in young people and adults. It is a fungal infection of the foot caused by parasites on the skin which feed on dead skin cells and love warm, moist places. This condition is primarily a problem for people who wear tight-fitting trainers or don't dry their feet properly.
The condition is contagious and can be spread by direct skin-to-skin contact and indirectly through towels, shoes, clothing and floors. Luckily athlete's foot can be treated quickly and effectively. Antifungal products containing clotrimazole (Canesten AF), miconazole (Daktarin), zinc undecenoate (Mycota), terbinafine (Lamisil AT) and tolnaftate (Scholl) are most effective against athlete's foot. If odour is also a problem take a look at our foot odour products.
Sometimes it can be hard to know which is the right product for you, which is why we at expresschemist, have broken down the treatments for Athlete's Foot into product type as well as brand name.
