TORONTO CHIROPODIST SHARES SOME ADVICE ON PREVENTING ATHLETE'S FOOT

 

 

 

Podiatrist, Dr. Casey Ann Pidich states, "You’ve heard it before but it’s worth mentioning — gym showers and locker room floors are a big-time breeding ground for the fungus that causes Athlete’s foot and nasty blisters, so be sure to wear flip-flops. Take extra care drying your feet too, working the towel in between your toes.  Using powder all over your toes and heels before putting on your sneakers works like magic to keep them dry and sanitary. Also, if you book a pedicure, try to grab the first appointment of the day when the tubs are likely to be the cleanest."  
 
Toronto foot clinic, Academy Foot and Orthotic Clinics sees many cases of Athlete's Foot, many times in conjunction with fungal toenails.  Fungal infections can be difficult to treat and the patient must be relentless when treating the infection and also taking steps to make sure that the infection does not return.  
 
If you or a loved one requires high quality advice, foot care or custom orthotics, please do not hesitate to contact our foot clinic.
