Four common mistakes with skin and athlete's foot, that you should avoid
1. Symptoms are recognized too late or ignored
Even before the first skin changes can be seen, the fungus is usually noticeable through invisible signs. The fungal growth causes tension in the skin, which is noticeable through tingling, itching or a slight burning sensation.
Redness, skin cracks or blistering in the area between the toes are often mistaken for corns or pressure points. The quicker you react, the less complicated the treatment.
You can often even smell the fungus: an unpleasant odor can be the first sign of a fungal disease. Because if the skin's immune system is weakened by the fungus, certain bacteria can also multiply better.
2. People wait too long to treat
Skin fungus and athlete's foot should be treated as early as possible - i.e. at the first sign - because the longer the fungus remains untreated, the greater the risk of it spreading to other areas of the skin or the toenails.
3. Softened skin is additionally moisturized
Fungal diseases are often associated with moist, softened skin - ideal growth conditions for the pathogens. In this case, the skin should not be additionally moistened with a cream, but kept dry during the treatment. So reach for an alcohol-based antifungal spray such as Mykosert ® Spray. It dries and disinfects the skin, making fungal growth more difficult.
4. Socks and towels are washed incorrectly
The risk of infection from the washing machine is often underestimated. In the family and shared flats, the fungal pathogens often spread through the laundry in the washing machine.
Linen, towels and bed linen that come into contact with the infected skin areas should be washed separately and at a temperature of at least 60°C, or with special hygienic rinsers.
