Canesten® Extra Antifungal Cream with CanesTouch Applicator

Our most convenient athlete’s foot treatment from Canesten! Canesten Extra Antifungal Cream with CanesTouch Applicator fights athlete's foot like no other antifungal treatment, thanks to its unique easy-to-use no-touch applicator.

It brings complete relief thanks to its anti-fungal, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory action. The unique no-touch applicator enables hygienic and precise application of the cream, for example between the toes. Its fast absorption and only 1 application per day make it effective, convenient and easy to use.

What is athlete’s foot?

It’s a fungal skin infection caused by fungi that thrive in warm and moist environments like changing rooms, showers and public pools. Walking barefoot in these places puts you at greater risk. Athlete’s foot usually occurs between your toes, but it can also affect the soles and sides of your feet.

Good to know!

You don’t have to be an athlete to get infected and it’s not a matter of poor hygiene. Fungal skin infections may feel uncomfortable, but in most cases there’s nothing to worry about and they can be treated easily.

Common symptoms of skin fungus

  • Red rash or blisters

  • Itching, burning or stinging

  • Flaked, cracked or scaly skin

  • Splitting, softening or whitening skin

  • Unpleasant odour

When you have
athlete's foot

Athlete’s foot is a common condition. It’s not serious and not the end of the world, but the symptoms are annoying and can be even more so if the infection lingers or comes back. That’s why you shouldn’t ignore it:

A fungal infection won’t go on its own. Treat it, don’t hide it.

Canesten clock icon

An infection doesn’t disappear just because symptoms do. Canesten Extra antifungal treatment needs 3-4 weeks to be completely effective.

Canesten cream icon

Start treatment sooner rather than later to fight fungus more effectively.

Canesten spreading yeast cells icon

If untreated, athlete’s foot can spread to other parts of your body and cause other types of skin fungus or fungal nail.

Care about your
loved ones

Athlete’s foot is very contagious. It not only easily spreads to other parts of your body, but also to other people. Your loved ones are especially susceptible, but there are a few things you can do:

Don’t share shoes, towels or bed sheets.

Canesten hand washing icon

Wash your hands after applying the treatment or choose a treatment with no-touch applicator

Frequently asked questions
about Athlete’s Foot

    If I ignore it, will it go away on its own?

    Unfortunately not. Athlete’s foot is a fungal skin infection which requires treatment with anti-fungal medicine. The earlier you treat it the sooner it will clear up. For information on treating athlete’s foot simply and effectively, visit our athlete’s foot treatment page.

    How long does the treatment take?

    Depending on the product, recommended treatment time varies from 1 to 4 weeks. The symptoms of the skin infection, such as itching or soreness, should improve within a few days of treatment with all Canesten Athlete’s foot creams. If the symptoms do not improve within 7 days, please consult your doctor.

    Can I continue exercising if I have athlete’s foot?

    Athlete’s foot shouldn’t stop you from exercising, though you should stay away from swimming in order to help prevent spreading the infection. When exercising, you should wear cotton socks and in changing rooms you should wear flip flops or sandals. After exercising, be sure to properly clean and dry your feet, wash your socks in hot water and let your shoes dry after wearing them.
