• Check Now Your Fungus

Patients who have fungal infections should use a new towel every time they wipe the affected areas on their body. All cloths which have been in contact with the affected areas should be washed in hot water, preferably with chlorine bleacher. If you have nothing of that kind at home, just boil your laundry in clean water for 10 minutes. If this could not be done due to some reasons, press the dried cloths with hot iron. Women`s elastic pantyhose or stockings, which cannot be bleached or boiled, should be washed in hot water with soap.
Your feet should always stay dry (except when you are taking a shower or bath). After taking a shower, bath or washing your feet, carefully wipe them dry paying special attention to the skin area between toes.
Change your stocks, tights or stockings and air your shoes every day.
Wear cotton made socks, since synthetic materials increase perspiration thereby creating favorable conditions for fungal growth. Though, this advice is unfeasible for most young women who pay a lot of attention to their appearance. We recommend them to change their pantyhose or stockings as frequently as possible (at least once a day) and wash them carefully; also wipe the internal part of your shoes with alcohol-soaked cotton pad.
Foot skin fungal infections could be complicated with toe-nail fungal affection. To protect your toe nails, keep them clean. Do not use metal pedicure files, since it may damage the nail plate thereby creating even more favorable conditions for dwelling of the microscopic parasites.
Sometimes feet fungal infection is accompanied by rash in the inguinal region (genital zone).  Remember, that skin rashes in all areas of your body should be treated simultaneously. To avoid getting infection from your feet to the genital zone, put on clean socks before putting on underwear.

• Prevent Fungual Infection

Elementary hygiene observation is a necessary circumstance for prevention of fungus infections and their successful treatment.
As it was already mentioned, fungi prefer to dwell in wet and warm places. That is why the treacherous microorganism often lies in wait for us in places where we come to improve our health: saunas, gyms and swimming pools. How to avoid fungal contamination? First of all take rubber slippers with you when visiting any of the listed establishments. Secondly, never let other people use your towel or try your shoes or socks. Keep in mind, that shoes and towels become source of fungal diseases more often than anything else.
