Harmful fungi that can cause itching in the feet include dermatophytes, which are responsible for conditions like athlete's foot (tinea pedis). These fungi thrive in warm, moist environments, leading to symptoms such as redness, peeling, and intense itching. Yeast infections, often caused by Candida species, can also affect the feet and contribute to discomfort. Proper hygiene and treatment are essential to manage and prevent these fungal infections.

What does it mean when the bottom of feet itch?

When the bottom of your feet itch, it may mean that your feet are relatively dirty. It may also mean an allergic reaction to rubber soles in tennis shoes. It could also point back to your socks. If your socks are dyed, the color dye may cause your feet to itch. Also, it is rare, but if you are wearing socks for a long amount of time, and they start to itch, it may mean "fuzzies" from the socks are embedding in the creases in your feet, which cause the tiny pores in the creases of your feet to not be able to keep airing out. If this is what your case is, I highly recommend either ridding of the fuzz in your feet by (and this may sound weird) removing your sock and picking out as much fuzz as you can. As you can see for some socks, it does stick in the creases of your feet. Or to make time go by faster, rub your foot and most of it will come off. Another reason why your feet may itch is because you might have been in dirtier water with shoes and small parasites might affect your feet. Just keep your feet clean and dry and you should be okay!
