are there any dangers when you wear someone elses clothes, like from a yard sale?


Question:
I mean that you might get a disease or anything

Answers:
Just make sure they are washed. I work at a foot doctor office and one suggestion is: don't buy shoes at garage sales. Many people, especially older people have toenail fungus. You cannot get rid of nail fungus. If you wear someone's shoes who has or had fungus, there is a very strong possibility that you could get it too. It is advised that anyone who has foot or toenail fungus throw away their shoes, don't try to give them away or sell them. But the clothes, I would think they are fine as long as they are washed properly.
For crying out loud, wash them first. That's a no-brainer.
