article: If you come in contact with a contaminated surface and then provide a good environment for fungus to grow, you be at increased risk for developing athlete's foot. Contaminated surfaces may include swimming pools, locker rooms or showers where you walk barefoot after someone with an athlete's foot infection. Certain behaviors can also predispose you to developing a fungal infection on your feet or toes, such as: Wearing tight shoes with limited air flow. Wearing shoes with plastic liners. Leaving your feet wet or moist for long periods of time. Having sweaty feet often. Developing a nail or skin injury. Most of these symptoms revolve around the skin irritation that the fungus causes. There are three kinds of athlete's foot that may have slightly different symptoms to look out for. Symptoms can be mild, moderate or even severe. Some symptoms, such as itching, can become worse as soon as you remove socks and shoes. Symptoms of athlete's foot can include: Itching and burning. Peeling or flaking skin. Cracking skin. Bleeding. Pain of the infected area. Areas of skin that look pinker/redder than the rest of the foot (if you have light skin). Look at both feet close up under good lighting so you won't miss anything. Pay special attention to areas between the toes and the soles of your feet. If you notice any skin that is red and peeling or dry flakes on your skin and are experiencing some of the symptoms mentioned in this article, you should begin treatment. Toe web infection is a form of athlete's foot that is frequently found between the fourth and fifth toes. You will need to look for signs of athlete's foot in these areas, such as scaly, peeling or cracking skin. Bacteria can also infect the area causing further damage to the skin. Moccasin-type infection may begin as a very mild thickening or cracking on the heel or other areas on the bottom of your foot. It can gradually become worse, infecting toenails so that they also thicken, crack or fall out. Be sure to check your toenails for signs of irritation or fungal infection. This type of fungal infection can cause fluid-filled blisters to occur suddenly on your foot. The blisters can usually be found on the bottom of your foot. A bacterial infection can coincide with your vesicular type infection, making symptoms much worse. Fungal infections are opportunistic and can appear anywhere that conditions allow them to thrive. You should always wash your hands thoroughly after handling infected areas on your feet. Fungal infections can spread to your hands, especially if you pick at areas on your foot infected with athlete's foot. Athlete's foot can spread to your toenails and fingernails. It is more difficult to treat toenail infections than skin infections on your foot. Athlete's foot can develop into jock itch when it infects your groin area. Know that the fungus that causes athlete's foot can contaminate materials like a towel or be transferred by your hands if, for example, you touch your infected foot and then scratch your groin area. A medical provider can often diagnose athlete's foot by examining the infected area of your foot. They can look for telltale visual signs that point to the fungal infection. Your doctor may also perform some tests to confirm a diagnosis, such as: Taking skin scrapings from the infected area in order to take a look at the cells under a microscope. Using a black-light to look at your feet and see if the light shows fungus on your foot. Sending a sample of skin cells to the laboratory for further testing.

article: Remove discolored parts and extra leaves, so the flowers are in good shape for drying. Cut the stems down to and or inch 2 (2.35 to 4.7 cm) from the base of the flowers. Choose a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid to use for drying your flowers. Deeper containers work better than shallow ones, since the flowers will need to be completely submerged in silica gel. Pour a thin layer of silica gel in the plastic container. The gel should completely cover the bottom of the container. Err on the side of pouring in too much gel to keep the flowers from being crushed against the bottom of the container. Take each bloom by the stem and carefully place it bloom-side down into the container. Add as many blooms as will comfortably fit in the container without touching each other or the container's sides. Place enough silica gel in the container to completely surround and support the hydrangeas. Hold each flower steady with one hand and sprinkle the gel with the other until the flowers can stand up on their own and are covering the petals and stems. Fill the container with gel until it rises 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) above the blooms in addition to covering the stem. If the container is narrow and very deep, you can suspend a flower at the bottom, cover it with silica gel, and add another bloom above it. Just make sure the container is deep enough that the flowers don't touch each other. Put a lid on the container. Place it in a corner or a closet to allow the drying process to commence. Write the date you submerged the flowers on the container, so you know when it's time to take them out. Leave container undisturbed for 4 days. Drying hydrangeas any longer in silica could result in brittle blooms that could shatter. After 4 days, they should be completely dry. Open the container and slowly pour the contents onto newspaper. Remove the dry hydrangea blooms and gently tap them to remove any loose silica. Save the silica gel in a plastic container for the next time you want to dry flowers. Carefully store the dried hydrangea blossoms in plastic bags until you're ready to use them or place them in a vase.

article:
A line graph has variables on the left and bottom. The line charts where the two variables meet, which is why it works well for time, such as the number of vegetarians on campus over the years. For instance, put years on the bottom and the number of people on the side. Then you can graph how the number has changed over the years.
