Hey folks, fungi are fungi, but tinea pedis (athlete's foot) isn't candida
albicans (thrush).  Tinea pedis is usually caused by T. rubrum, E.
floccosum or T. mentagrophytes.  Let's not think that sore nipples can come
from dad's smelly feet, please.  The common factors are: fungi, warm, dark,
damp places.  Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
