Athlete’s Foot (tinea pedis) is a widespread disease. About 15% of the UK population¹ have it at any one time, and for most sufferers, it’s a long-term problem. In a recent study of 900 sufferers in the UK, France and Germany, 65% said they had more than four incidences a year, and 66% said that they’d been periodic sufferers for four years or more, 23% have even suffered for more than 10 years.²

 

Athlete’s Foot can be painful and embarrassing, and if left untreated, can lead to more serious problems, such as onychomycosis (ringworm of the nails) and bacterial infection, particularly among immuno-suppressed groups.
