What is athlete's foot?..

Athlete's foot is a fungal infection that typically occurs on the feet..because the infection is common among people who exercise or play sports, it was named athlete's foot..however, anyone can experience athlete's foot..

Fungus thrives in warm, dark, moist places, such as the inside of a shoe, in locker rooms, showers, and around swimming pools..when you walk through a contaminated area, your bare feet come in contact with the fungus..if your feet or the area between your toes stays moist, the fungus will grow..

A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition;

- Risk factors include:
- Prior athlete's foot infection
- Walking barefoot in locker rooms or public places
- Not keeping your feet clean and dry
- Wearing air-tight or poorly ventilated shoes or boots
- Sweaty feet
- Hot, humid weather
- Disorders of the immune system


































this is what is on my right feet..gee..

peace outz!..
