Can Thiosulphate Treat Athlete’s Foot?

Athlete’s foot is a fungal infection of the skin on the foot, which is a type of infectious skin disease. Thiosulphate is an antibacterial drug, but it does not treat athlete’s foot. For treating athlete’s foot, patients need to take orally or apply topically antifungal drugs. Commonly used topical medications include Miconazole cream, Terbinafine cream, Ketoconazole cream, etc.; oral medications include Itraconazole or Terbinafine. Thiosulphate can be used for bacterial infections such as folliculitis or impetigo, but it is ineffective for treating fungal infections.
