Athlete's
foot is a fungal infection of the skin. A vesicular (blister) infection usually
begins with a sudden outbreak of fluid-filled areas under the skin. The
blisters most often develop on the skin of the instep but may also develop
between the toes, on the heel, or on the sole or top of the foot.
