Homeopathy for athlete’s foot

The occurrence of athlete’s foot can be accompanied by various symptoms. These often include an existing itching, reddening of the skin area, as well as the formation of blisters or dandruff. Athlete’s foot can also be accompanied by an unpleasant odor.

The disease is caused by various types of fungi, such as thread fungi or moulds. The athlete’s foot is also called tinea pedis and is caused by the penetration of the fungal pathogens on damaged skin areas. Here often small cracks of the skin, for example between two toes, are present. In addition, the presence of diabetes mellitus favors the development of the skin disease, since the nerves in the area of the feet no longer function regularly.
