My teen son just showed me his feet and the skin is peeling off between his toes. He says the burning is intense. Need a remedy before practice tomorrow!

To prevent athlete’s foot from spreading among teammates, it’s important to promote good hygiene practices. Ensure your son understands the importance of not sharing personal items like shoes and towels. Encourage the team to clean and disinfect locker rooms regularly.

If your son is currently dealing with athlete’s foot, inform the coach or team trainer so they can take appropriate measures, such as increased cleaning protocols or advising other players to watch for symptoms. Educating the team about the condition can help reduce stigma and encourage prompt reporting of symptoms.
