Many people suffer from foot fungus. At our office, we have a specific protocol for treating foot fungus. First, we evaluate the severity of the infection. If it is a mild infection, we may recommend over-the-counter antifungal creams or lotions. If the infection is more severe, we may prescribe oral antifungal medication. In either case, we also recommend that patients take measures to prevent re-infection, such as wearing socks made of natural fibers and avoiding walking barefoot in public places. If you think you may have a foot fungus infection, please call our office to schedule an appointment.

Some common causes for foot fungus are :

Wearing shoes that are too tight

Sweating excessively

Having a weakened immune system

Walking barefoot in public places

Not drying your feet thoroughly after bathing or swimming

Sharing towels, shoes, or other personal items with someone who has a foot fungus infection
