If you have a fear of germs and all things dirty please prepare yourself—this article will mortify you. In fact, even if you aren't afraid of germs, this article will probably mortify. Let's start off by stating something relatively known all around the world; there are different types of fungus living all over the human body. As it turns out, heels and under toenails are fungi's favourite place to live.
