What is another name for the condition known as athlete's foot?

Tinea manus
Tinea pedis
Tinea unguium
Pityriasis steatoides

The correct answer is: Tinea pedis

Athlete's foot is a common fungal infection of the feet caused by the fungus tinea pedis. Tinea manus (choice A) refers to a fungal infection of the hands, not the feet. Tinea unguium (choice C) is another name for a fungal infection of the nails, not specifically athlete's foot. Pityriasis steatoides (choice D) is a type of dandruff, which is not the same as athlete's foot. Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
