Before you run away from me the next
time you see me, I just wanted to state the fact I do NOT have a fungus living
at the bottom of my feet...
I hope…

So as you can see from the title,
these pictures show a fungus residing at the foot of the victim.
Now this fungus usually comes in
contact in swimming pools, public showers, lockers, and even wet towels, thus
giving it its name: Athlete's foot.

Fungi grow best in areas that are
warm and moist in which case is usually between the toes.
The two most common fungi that cause
the athlete's foot are the Trichophyton mentagrophytes (which causes
"toe web" or blister infections) and Tricophyton rubrum (which brings
"Moccasin type infections which brings a scaly type of skin at the bottom
of your foot).
