Tinea pedis: Foot hygiene, keep webs between feet dry, use foot powder, wear open toed footwear that allows feet to breathe, avoid closed shoes till better, cotton socks that need to washed daily. And medications- best answered by a doctor after checking. There are over the counter meds that can also be used in the meantime. Sneakers need to washed.
