what is it?
In its most common form, Athlete’s Foot is unmistakable. The skin between your toes itches like crazy. As the infection progresses, the skin grows soft and the infected area becomes inflamed and sensitive to the touch. Gradually, the edges of the infected area become milky white and the skin begins to peel and flake.
But Athlete's Foot (tinea pedis) takes other forms too. With ‘vesicular’ tinea pedis, a series of raised bumps or ridges develops under the skin on the sole of your foot. That’s itchy too.
Then there’s the ‘moccasin foot’ variety of tinea pedis, where a red, itchy rash spreads across your foot in the shape of a moccasin. The skin becomes dense, very dry, white and scaly.
Lamisil Once® is specifically formulated for interdigital tinea pedis: Athlete’s Foot. If you have a case of moccasin tinea pedis, your doctor may prescribe an oral antifungal.
