Question:

I just got athlete's foot, should I throw out my flip flops?

I literally just got symptoms of athletes foot today. I wore the flip flops for about 3 hours. Should I throw them out or should I be okay?


Answers:

Just wash them in the washer in hot water. They will be fine. It is a fungal infection that cannot live on dry flip flops. It likes the toes and feet because it is warm and moist.
