FAQ | What are the most common causes of fungal toenails?

Your toenails are composed of 80% hard keratin and 20% soft keratin. Keratin is also in your skin and hair. Dermatophytes are the fungus profound for causing onychomycosis. This type of fungi feeds on keratin to grow and multiply.

Dermatophytes love warm, moist environments, such as:

- Public swimming pools
- Beaches
- Saunas
- Changing rooms

| Moisture-wicking socks are great for the winter months. This is because the socks will draw moisture away from your feet so they won't be as sweaty. Natural socks are also a good idea for those who have foot odour problems. If your feet sweat less, you'll have less foot odour to worry about!

| To keep your feet feeling fresh and rejuvenated, wash them at least once a day. A quick soap with lukewarm water is all it takes. If your feet are especially dry, apply a moisturiser to the cracked areas.

| Staying warm isn't just about comfort. It's about safety, too. When your feet are cold, your body goes into a freezing-cold survival state โ€” a state in which your immune system is weakened, and you're more prone to getting injured. Keeping your feet warm while staying active is essential when you're outside in the snow.

| Wearing the appropriate footwear in the snow or ice is essential to preventing injury.

It is recommended that you choose a pair of shoes that support your foot arches with a non-slip and grippy sole. This means that even on slippery surfaces, you can gain some stability, waterproof footwear is also important as it keeps your feet dry and free from infection.

| One of the worst feelings in the wintertime is when you walk in slush and your shoes and socks get wet. It's gross but it's also damaging your skin. Moist feet will chill more quickly and cause calloused or sore feet. To avoid this, carry a spare pair of socks in your purse or bag and swap out wet socks for a fresh pair. Dry feet equal happy and healthy feet!

| To avoid sweaty feet, wear socks made from breathable materials like wool. Remove your socks if your feet turn white and your toes wrinkle.

There are some winter activities and sports that require special shoes, like skiing and ice skating. But this is not the case for most of them. If you're doing something like running or playing football, you should wear well-fitting shoes with at least some padding. Constricted circulation can make your feet feel cold and numb, so be aware of this.

| Feet warming pads and hot water bottles, even an electric blanket on your bed or sofa will keep your feet feeling nice and toastie. Direct contact with the skin is not advised to avoid burns and make sure to keep your socks on.
