Hong Kong Foot

I learned a new expression in Thai today: "Hong Kong Foot". Yes, that's the Thai; it refers to what we call in English, "Athlete's Foot", the fungus that grows between your toes. Apparently Athlete's Foot is a major problem in Thailand because practically everyone wears open rubber flip-flops, and there's water everywhere. But I never knew this was called "Hong Kong Foot" in Thai until today. Sphere: Related Content
