Early stage athlete's foot typically appears as a scaly, red rash between the toes, which may cause itching and burning. If left untreated, the rash may spread to the sides and bottom of the foot, and may even extend to the ankles, causing thick, flaky, and cracked skin. In severe cases, the skin may become cracked and even bleed. Severe infections may cause intense itching, pain, and even blisters. In all cases, it is important to seek medical attention to prevent further spread of the infection.
