Athlete’s Foot: Disease Insights

The Athlete’s foot or Tinea pedis is the transmissible fungal infection that mainly affects the foot’s skin. This disease also spreads to hands and toenails. It is named ‘Athlete’s foot’ because it is highly prevalent in athletes. The causative agent of the Athlete’s foot is Tinea fungus. The warm and humid climates facilitate the growth of these fungi. This disease can be caused by coming in direct contact with the infected person or with the infected objects.

 

Certain factors, like walking barefoot in public places, sharing objects with the infected person, wearing tight footwear, and keeping wetty feet for longer periods facilitate the growth of tinea fungus. Thus, these factors increase the chances of Athlete’s foot disease.

 

The signs and symptoms of an Athlete’s foot include blisters on the feet, dry feet skin, discoloured toenails, itching between the toes, and cracking feet skin.

 

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Interventions

Monitoring of symptoms helps in the diagnosis of the Athlete’s foot. A skin lesion potassium hydroxide test is mainly done to confirm this disease. In this test, a small area of infected skin is scrapped and placed in potassium hydroxide. Potassium hydroxide damages the healthy cells and leaves the infected cells behind. These infected cells can be analyzed under a microscope for further evaluation.

 

The treatment methods for Athlete’s foot depend on the severity of the disease. This is mainly treated with the help of over-the-counter antifungal medications. Some examples of such drugs are Miconazole, Clotrimazole, and Tolnaftate. These drugs are applied through topical routes. Oral antifungals, topical steroids, and oral antibiotics may also be prescribed for the Athlete’s foot disease treatment market. Example of such drugs are Fluconazole and Itraconazole.
