When treating athlete’s foot for adults and children over 10 years:<\/em> Wash and dry your feet thoroughly. Use a special towel for the fungus-infected area. This way you avoid infecting others.

Change socks every day. When the skin then looks healthy again, the treatment should continue for at least another week. This prevents relapse. You must talk to your doctor if your symptoms worsen or do not improve within 7 days. Do not treat for more than 4 weeks without a doctor’s prescription.
