Explanation

Athlete’s foot is a fungal infection that commonly causes itchy, dry, blistered or peeling skin on the feet and can sometimes affect the hands. Influenza and strep throat do not typically cause this kind of skin rash, and chicken pox usually causes itchy blisters over much of the body. The best choice is athlete’s foot.
