With the warmer weather and more time at the pool, gym or beach,
fungal infections like tinea (athlete’s foot) and nail fungus are on the rise.
Common culprits of fungal infections:
• Walking barefoot in public showers
• Sharing shoes or socks
• Sweaty feet stuck in closed shoes all day
Keep your feet fresh & fungus-free:
✔ Wear thongs in communal showers
✔ Change socks daily
✔ Keep feet clean and dry
✔ Don’t share nail clippers or shoes/socks
If you’ve noticed itchy, peeling skin or discolored nails, don’t ignore it!
Early treatment makes all the difference.
