“Cherlene!  Are you insane? Why are you using a belt sander on your foot?”

“Ohhh Girl, this here’s the only way I can get my feet to stop itching.  They drivin’ me crazy!”

“You’re gonna rub those things to the bone!”

“Well, at least they won’t itch no more.”

Have your feet started to look like some of the Athletes Foot pictures you’ve seen before?  Do they itch you so bad you want to take a belt sander to them?  If so, then it might be time to look into the condition known as Athlete’s Foot:

• See what it is
• How do you know if you have it
• And what can you do to get rid of it

What symptoms might I see in Athletes Foot pictures?

When looking at Athletes Foot pictures one might notice any of the following:

• Dry, scaly skin
• Flaking or peeling
• Cracked feet
• Redness
• Swelling
• Itching (yes just seeing, Athlete’s Foot may cause you to itch)
• Burning or stabbing pains
• Blisters (possibly oozing moisture of some kind)
• Discolored nails
• Exposed tissue

Fingernails, and more likely toenails, have symptoms and treatments all their own, even though they’re caused by the same basic organism.  Toe fungus will present with:

• Dry nails
• Discolored nails (often yellowish)
• Top of nail may be peeling
• Under the nail will be crumbling, powdery nail tissue
• ·         Possible onycholysis – nail separates from the nail bed

Any Athletes Foot pictures are going to show some sort of combination from the above symptoms.  You can also check out the article on toenail fungus pictures, to see those examples.

Athletes Foot pictures: Diagnosis

Most people correctly self-diagnose Athlete’s Foot (AF).  There are other conditions, even other fungi, that cause some of the same symptoms as AF, but by far the most common cause is Tinea.  In order to be 100% sure that you have true AF, you would need to go to a doctor.  Once there your physician will perform one of the following tests:

• Physical and visual exam
• KOH Exam (stained slide of the tissue under a microscope)
• Wood’s Lamp Exam (Black light or UV-A light over the infection)
• Tissue Biopsy
• Culture Swab Growth

Once the results are in from the test or tests performed, then your doctor can make a diagnosis to determine if you need to be added to the Athletes Foot pictures.

Athletes Foot pictures: Risk Factors

So who is in danger of getting their feet in the next batch of Athletes Foot pictures?  What conditions are optimal for the growth of AF?  Here is a list of Risk Factors:

• Tinea survives and spreads in warm, moist environments
• Public pools, showers, and bathrooms are prime conditions for growth
• Locker rooms are a huge risk area (especially for wrestlers)
• Tight fitting, poorly ventilated socks and shoes seem to exacerbate the risks
• Dirty or sweaty socks and shoes are high risk
• Tennis shoes are high risk
• Men get them more than women
• Show up more in the elderly
• Toenails that are injured or repeated to trauma (exercising)
• Certain Immune Deficiency Diseases (HIV, Diabetes)

There are things you can do to help avoid being in any Athletes Foot pictures, most of them doing with your foot care procedures.  Follow these easy prevention steps:

• Keep your feet dry and clean
• Stay barefoot as much as possible
• However, do wear sandals in public showers and locker rooms
• Change socks and shoes frequently
• Frequent washing and drying of your feet

These will eliminate the above risks associated with your feet.

Athletes Foot pictures: Athlete’s Foot Treatment

Once you have some or all of the horrible symptoms you see in Athletes Foot pictures, what can you do about it?  The treatments of AF are limited, unless you go the home remedy route and then the options are countless.  Be careful though, and know exactly what you are doing to your body before you begin any treatment.
