๐Ÿšจ Prevent Common Skin Infections at the Gym! ๐Ÿšจ

Working out is great for your health, but gyms can be breeding grounds for germs. Protect yourself from skin infections like ringworm, plantar warts, and impetigo with these tips:


๐ŸŒฟ Wear loose, moisture-wicking clothes – Stay dry and clean those gym clothes after each use.

๐ŸŒฟ Always wear shoes – Keep a pair of shower shoes or sandals in your gym bag and never walk barefoot.

๐ŸŒฟ Cover any cuts – Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs until healed.

๐ŸŒฟ Disinfect equipment – Use wipes or spray before and after use, and consider a towel barrier on shared surfaces.

๐ŸŒฟ Wash your hands – Clean up immediately after your workout.

๐ŸŒฟ Shower ASAP – Change into clean clothes after your shower and never share personal items.


If you notice signs of infection like increased pain, swelling, pus, or redness, see a board-certified dermatologist. Stay safe and enjoy your workouts!
