Is athlete's foot contagious?


I have it and i want to know is it contagious to everyone in my house....

What is the best cure?
which medicated creame or spray do i buy?

Yes. Keep your feet dry and medicated. Do not share shoes, socks or towels.

yes

Yes under certain conditions. Sharing footwear, for instance.
Mainly, it's not very contagious. Dry, clean feet are not apt to pick up the fungus.

yes it is . but you can buy special powder for it . just keep socks on . and it will be fine

I bet you play sports and/or around people that play.

I believe you usually get it from the gym, bathroom, showers etc. Where people usually take off their shoes. Just wear your shower shoes/flip flops around and if you share a shower ask your relatives to do it until you can clean the shower and floors with bleach.

The worse part about athletes foot is the itching. There is powder and ointments and lotion you can put on it. It will be a personal choice so maybe you can go to a walmart like place and buy a store brand so it will a lot cheaper and buy the ointment/lotion and the powder. I know people that swear by either one so you will probably find one that you like

Good luck..
