Is it athlete's foot?
Having itchy, cracking, dry feet or feet with flaky skin and small tears (fissures) can be upsetting. It may also cause anxiety about what is going on with your body. Symptoms like the ones above, along with a few other symptoms such as redness or white, soft skin between your toes signal that you might have athlete's foot or tinea pedis, a common but treatable condition affecting 1 in 5 people.
What do I do now?
Before you do anything else, take a deep breath and relax. Even though the symptoms of athlete's foot should not be ignored, you can usually treat your infection with the right medication.
And remember that you are not alone: athlete's foot is a common fungal infection that affects about 1 in 5 of all people at some point in their lives.
