U r supposed to use cream three times a day , rub it in gently , &use it for 2-6 weeks depending on the site of infection.

Unusual: Athletes foot can be spread from person to person, however it is unusual to get it on the face. Good hygiene, washing well with soap and water, keeping feet clean and dry, using foot powder, anti-fungal oil or medication and keeping socks and shoes clean and dry will all help!
