A member asked:
Can athlete's foot cause a secondary infection if the skin is not cracked or peeled? because my foot is all swollen up to the ankle.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Something else......: You need to see a doctor. It can be many things, but it is almost certainly not related to Athlete's foot!
