Tip 1
Prevent nail damage. A damaged nail infects much faster.
Tip 2
Dry your feet carefully after showering and do this with extra care between the toes! This gives the fungus less chance.
Tip 3
Wear clean socks every day, preferably cotton or wool. It is important that the socks absorb perspiration (humidity) and keep the skin dry. Wash your socks inside out, so that any possible fungus in the fabric are washed out and are less able to adhere to the material.
Tip 4
Change your shoes regularly and wear well-ventilated (leather) shoes. When possible, take off your shoes and walk barefoot or in socks.
Tip 5
Wear flipflops (pool slippers) in public areas.
Tip 6
Wash your feet every day, preferably with little or no soap at all.
Tip 7
Use Mycosan Foot & Shoe Powder to keep feet dry and prevent fungal infection. Use Mycosan Protect to protect your feet against fungi for 12 hours
Tip 8
With every complaint of the foot, a visit to the pedicure can provide insight for correct treatment or referral to a specialist. It is therefore good to seek advice in case of foot complaints.
