Tinea pedis is a significant health issue in Qatar, particularly among older adults, males, obese individuals, diabetics, and those with poorly controlled diabetes. These findings can increase awareness among local physicians about the need to screen high-risk groups and promote prevention of modifiable risk factors through targeted interventions and patient education.
