How effective is using purell on my feet for athletes' foot ?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not much: Purrell is an antimicrobial soap not an antifungal so I am not sure it will help much.

Not : The astringent properties of purell will cause some drying of the area but it will not help athletes foot, as this is caused by a fungus.
