Have I given myself athlete's foot by wearing swim socks?!

Hmm

I bought some swim socks to wear when I went on a spa day because I was paranoid about getting athlete's foot/verrucas. I wore the swim socks for the majority of the day (when I took them off for lunch, loads of water came out of them).

I couldn't have given myself athlete's foot by wearing swim socks could I?!?!

Oh and the reason I think I may have it is because I have dry skin between my 4th and 5th toe - no other sign

@jellyfloodagain Sorry, added details above. Really should have explained in my initial post!

I wasn't sure if you had athletes foot and were wondering where it came from. I think you'll be fine then.

Apparently dry skin between the toes is a classic symptom of athlete's foot though?

I think you'd be itching like buggery.
