Question 2

whats the best cure for athlete's foot?

Accepted Answer

Lamisil: It is hard to diagnose athletes foot without a picture or a visit.  If you do have an infection caused by a fungus then I would recommend trying Lamisil AT cream for 2 weeks.  If this does not cure the itching and redness by the end of two weeks then you need to see a Podiatrist who can give you a prescription for another medication.  
Keeping the skin dry can also help.

Accepted Answer

Doctor can examine: Athlete's foot is a fungus infection of the skin. The fungus is somewhat contagious, but it is hard to tell how much contact one must have with the fungus before one develops a rash. If the rash spreads to the toenails, the fungus will be much harder to get rid of. To treat the skin rash, people use Lotrimin AF (clotrimazole), an over-the-counter cream that is inexpensive and sold everywhere.
