2. Dry Skin

Dry skin is also one of the most common symptoms of athlete’s foot. Athlete’s foot mostly develop from wearing socks or shoes that produce a warm and damp environment to the feet. As soon as you remove your footwear, the change in the extreme humidity and warmth may cause dryness, discomfort, and chapping of your skin.

If you experience this symptom often, be careful of the anti-fungal ointments you use as some may tend to make your skin even drier because of its chemical composition. Always moisturize your skin and keep your feet well ventilated. This allows for faster recovery.
