How can I make sure that my shoes are not contaminated if I have athlete's foot?

To ensure that your shoes are not contaminated if you have athlete's foot, you can check if they can be washed. There are several products available to clean the inside of your shoes, which you can inquire about at your local cleaner. You can also use powders containing tolnaftate to prevent athlete's foot, such as Gold Bond or Dr. Scholl's. It is also a good idea to always wear socks with your shoes, preferably made of cotton to allow for better ventilation.
