• Corns

  Corns & calluses are your body’s response to friction. This can be friction from your shoes rubbing your toes (corns) or your foot rubbing the ground or the bottom of your shoe (calluses). In any case, corns and calluses are a thickening of the skin in response to this friction.
• Eczema
  Athlete’s foot is a skin infection caused by a fungus that grows between the toes or on the soles of the feet. The fungus usually attacks the feet because wearing shoes creates a warm, dark and humid environment that encourages fungus growth. The fungus also tends to grow in the areas around swimming pools, locker rooms, and showers, and since athletes tend to use these areas, it’s easy to see how the term athlete’s foot received its name. Not all foot rashes are athlete’s foot, and some conditions such as disturbances of the sweat mechanism or reaction to materials made in the production of shoes, as well as eczema and other skin disorders, can also mimic athlete’s foot.
• Fungus
