Tinea Pedis, commonly known as athlete's foot, is a fungal infection that affects the skin on the feet. It is caused by dermatophytes, a type of fungus that thrives in warm, moist environments. Symptoms often include itching, burning, and peeling skin, particularly between the toes and on the soles of the feet. This condition is highly contagious and can spread through direct contact or by sharing contaminated items, such as towels or shoes. Treatment typically involves antifungal creams or powders, and maintaining good foot hygiene can help prevent recurrence.
