Fungi can be infected with three factors: heat, humidity and damage (even mild scratches).

In 80% of cases, the infection occurs when you visit the following places:

  1. Public baths, saunas.
  2. Pool.
  3. Sports, gyms.
  4. Dressing rooms with various sports and other facilities.
  5. Hotels and hotels where there is a carpet.
  6. Beauty salons (through manicure supplies).
  7. Beach.

I note that most often those who do not take care of their feet suffer from mushrooms:

  1. Don't wash them.
  2. He wears closed shoes in the warm season.
  3. When you visit, someone else picks up someone else's slippers or even wears someone else's shoes.
  4. After washing, your feet do not dry enough.
