According to the Govern ment Health Bulletin Av. E-98, at least 50%, of the
adult population of the United States are being attacked by the disease known Athlete's Foot,
Usually the disease starts between the toes. Little watery blisters form, and the skin cracks and peels. After a while, the itching becomes intense, and you feel as though you would like to scratch off all the skin.
