When we started gathering Athlete’s Foot cures for this post I wasn’t sure if it was specifically referred to as Athlete’s Foot or athlete’s feet, of course I Googled it. I found it really funny that it came up as Athlete’s Foot, in my mind (sometimes a very strange place to be) Athlete’s Foot meant that it only affected one foot. With all of the research that I’ve done on this subject I’ve found that Athlete’s Foot is highly contagious and rarely affects just one foot. Therefore I petition that the name be changed to Athlete’s Feet. It makes more sense doesn’t it?
