The Canal Incident

So in Arizona we have canals for irrigation (some people had sprinklers, some had irrigation) if you don't know what they are there are basically concrete ditches. I was walking in one during December (The canals have no water at this time) and my foot went in the very cold water, and as I stepped out I slipped and ended up walking with my shoes and socks soaked. I had to walk home like that and my right foot was soaking wet. This happened yesterday and I had a 2.5 mile walk home and I think I might have Trench Foot now. Gonna get that checked out soon.

Personally, I think you've just got wrinkly skin, you would have to be subject to prolonged exposure to submersion in dirty water filled trenches to contract trench foot. 👍

The canals have water and in the area I live in there's all sorts of junk in there including dead fish. There was water up to my ankle in my boots
 
I have spent several hours up to my knees on a flooded motorway and didn't contract trench foot. You will have to spend days if not weeks in muddy flooded unsanitary conditions to get it. 👍
