• Most likely causes:
– Fungal infection (tinea manuum + tinea pedis) – common when palms + toes involved
Next steps
• Keep feet dry; use antifungal dusting powder in shoes/socks
Helpful tips / Words of caution
• Avoid steroid combination creams (they worsen fungal infection)
• Change socks daily, wear breathable footwear
• Do not share towels/shoes
• Dry hands/feet properly after washing
• If cracks, pus, spreading, or severe night itching → get evaluated early
