Athlete's foot

( Foot ailments, Fungal infection )
Athlete's foot is a fungal skin infection not exclusive to athletes. The fungus thrives in areas that are always moist and warm, but the skin between the toes ( toe webs ) is most susceptible to it. Especially in hot humid weather. Feet in poorly ventilated shoes soak the socks in sweat and become breeding grounds for infection. In an advance stage, the disease may become chronic and painful.

Symptoms
* Mild to severe itch, usually n the feet.
* Cracked, scaling, and peeling skin, particularly in sometimes spreads to the soles.
