_KEEP YOUR SKIN CLEAN AND DRY:
-Shower after sweating or exercising.
-Pat skin dry instead of rubbing.
_WEAR BREATHABLE CLOTHING:
-Choose cotton or loose-fitting clothes instead of tight synthetic fabrics.
-This prevents heat and sweat buildup.

_CONTROL EXCESS SWEAT:
-Use antifungal body washes especially after workouts.
-Stay in cool, well-ventilated spaces when possible.
_BE CAUTIOUS WITH ANTIBIOTICS:

_AVOID SHARING PERSONAL ITEMS:
-Don’t share razors, towels, or clothing that touches the skin.
