The contagious fungal infection tinea pedis, also known as athlete's foot, affects the skin on the feet. It can also spread on the toenails or hands. Most often, this occurs when feet become extremely sweaty and tight-fitting shoes are worn. This fungal infection is often seen in athletes, hence the name athlete's foot. Although it is not serious, an athlete's foot can be difficult to treat. You should immediately contact your doctor if you suspect that you may have athlete's foot. Direct contact with infected people or contamination of surfaces can lead to the spread of the fungus. The fungus thrives when it is warm and moist. It is most common in swimming pools, locker rooms, and showers. In some cases, an athlete's foot can cause complications. Mild complications can include allergic reactions to the fungus that can cause blistering on the hands or feet. The fungal infection can also return even after treatment. If a secondary bacterial infection occurs, there may be worse complications. Your foot may become swollen and painful. Additional signs of bacterial infections include fever, drainage, and pus. The bacterial infection could also spread to your lymph system. An infection of the skin can lead to lymph nodes or infections in your lymphatic system. Athlete's foot is treated first with antifungals. Clotrimazole is the most commonly used antifungal drug. Home remedies can be used to treat athlete's foot. Athlete's foot can also be treated with over-the-counter remedies. With some success, tea tree oil has been used to treat athletes' foot. The research and development of antifungal medications will be major factors driving the market's growth over the forecast period. The market for tinea pedis treatments is also expected to grow due to a large number of immunocompromised patients. The market growth is also expected to be slowed by the increase in tinea podis. The timeline also shows that the lack of knowledge about tinea podis and the treatment options is expected to hinder the growth of the market for tineapedis treatments. The potential growth of the tinea-pedis market will also be facilitated by the increasing aging population. The strict approval process for new drugs or therapies could hinder the market's growth in the future. The rise in infectious diseases has been increasing worldwide over the past several decades due to changes in ecosystems and animal infection. This has resulted in the development of new fungal infections. Long-term antifungal drug prophylaxis for high-risk patients and long-term therapeutic use have helped to establish (multi-) drug resistance.
