Q:

What can I do about Athletes foot? I think I have it between the fifth and fourth and third and second two on my right foot. It has been there for quite awhile even through me trying gold bond. What can I do to get rid of it? It's terribly annoying. Thank you

 

A:

You do need to use an actual antifungal cream--try lotrimin (clotimazole) that is over the counter.  If it is not resolving within a week of several times a day applications, then there is a prescription antifungal cream ketoconazole that we can prescribe, but it is much more expensive.

Keep your feet dry, wear cotton socks and shoes that "breathe" to prevent recurrence.
