If you have sever athlete’s foot I would either recommend an oral anti fungal or I would apply anti fungal cream on affected areas. Then place your foot in a plastic bag and place a sock over the bag and foot. This is called an occlusive dressing. If your feet perspire a lot then spraying with an anti-deodorant or roll-on would be also helpful
