Tinea Pédis has tormented humanity for centuries, so it is surprising that in 1888, Pelijgari did not describe the situation till then. The first report of Tinea Pedeis was done in 1908 by Whitfield, which was with Suborraud, it was believed that Tinea Pedice was very rare infections caused by the same organism that produces tinea capitis.
The word tinea padis is used to treat skin soles and interdisciplinary spaces of skin. Tinea pedis is usually caused by trichophyton rubrum, which is initially spatial in small areas of Southeast Asia and parts of Africa and Australia.
The foot of the athlete, known as Tinea Pedis, is a common skin infection of the leg due to fungus. Symptoms and symptoms often include itching, scaling, cracking, and redness. Skin blisters may occur in rare cases. The athlete’s foot fungus can infect any part of the foot, but often grows between the toes. The next most common area is under foot. The same fungus can affect nails or hands too. It is a member of the group of diseases known as tinea.
The athlete’s foot is due to many different fungi. These include Trikofetan, Epidermofton and Microscopamic species. The condition is usually obtained by exposure to the infected skin, or the fungus in the environment. The general place where fungi can survive is in the swimming pool and locker rooms. They can spread from other animals too. Diagnosis is usually done on the basis of signs and symptoms; However, it can be confirmed either by culture or using hyphens using a microscope.
In some ways of prevention, public shavars are included in avoiding bare feet, avoiding tonel, wearing big shoes, and changing daily socks. When infected, the feet should be kept dry and clean and wearing sandals may help. Treatment can be applied either with antifungal drug, either clotrimazole or continuous infection of antifungal medicine, which is taken from mouth like teribinophin. The use of cream is usually recommended for four weeks.
The foot of the athlete was first described in 1908 as therapeutically. At the global level, the athlete’s foot affects about 15% of the population. Males are often affected compared to women. It often happens in older children or younger adults. It is believed that this is a rare situation, which became more due to the use of shoes, health clubs, war and travel in the 1900s more often.

Here “Plantar” refers to the sole of the foot. In the ulcerative condition, involving macular lesions along with scalie borders. Due to the wide contact of moisture, the skin is soft and broken. A vesiculobullous disease is a type of mucous disease that is characterized by vesicles and bullae (blisters).
