Magnitude and Associated Factors of Podoconiosis and its Comorbidity With Tungiasis Among Residents in Southwest Ethiopia: A Community‐Based Cross‐Sectional Study

This study indicates a significant prevalence of podoconiosis and a notable comorbidity with tungiasis. The findings of this study highlight the need for targeted interventions on improved footwear practices and hygiene education in the study area. Moreover, potential genetic screening of the population in podoconiosis endemic areas can contribute to the early prevention of the disease, thus reducing its burden and alleviating the torment of the population.
