Some people claim that urine is very effective in
treating
athlete's foot. This controversial treatment method
recommends urinating on the infected area once a day
while taking your shower.
According to supporters of the therapy, urine not
only kills existing fungi but prevents new fungi from
growing in the infected area. One medical study states
that the urea (the active ingredient in urine) is
only used to soften the outer layers of skin so that
antifungal drugs can reach the fungi below the surface
and that therefore the urea must be concentrated and
applied for a long period of time in order to be effective.

Urea itself without the presence of an additional antifungal drug is not referred to in scholarly literature as having antifungal properties. Therefore the conclusion was reached that it is unlikely that urinating on one’s feet in the shower will significantly improve a case of athlete’s foot.
