Can betadine be used for foot fungus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Foot fungus: Betadine is an iodine compound used mostly for cleansing wounds and skin areas. There are specific medications available for treatment of fungal skin infections that you may purchase without a prescription at the local drugstore. If your problem is fungal, check with the pharmacist for the anti-fungal (athlete's foot) cream available.
