BioSpray Athlete's Foot Outbreak ControlATHLETE'S FOOT

Tinea pedis, or athlete’s foot, is a fungal infection that develops in the moist areas of your feet. An athelte’s foot infection causes itching, stinging, burning, and unsightly mold growth. It is contagious, and closely related to ringworm and jock itch.

Method Of Transmission

Athlete’s foot is easily transmitted in moist areas where people are barefoot. Gyms, lockerrooms, athletic facilitied, pools, and medical examination rooms are all potential athlete’s foot breeding grounds. Sharing towels or shoes with someone who is infected can also spread the disease. One instance of Athlete’s foot can lead to the infection of an entire athletic facility.
