Athlete's foot: what to tell the pharmacist
Itchy or flaky feet are worth checking before choosing a cream.
Three practical points
- Describe the affected area, duration and any cracking or discomfort.
- Mention diabetes, other conditions and products already tried.
- Ask which treatment is suitable and how long to continue it. Keep the instructions with the pack.
In the Philippines, contact your usual health center, pharmacist or appropriate clinician for individual advice. Service availability and fees vary; ask the provider directly.
