Common Questions and Answers about Foot fungus in between toes

564644 tn?1216368363 Hi, This could be a fungal infection of the skin folds in between the toes called Athlete's foot. It is a common name given to a fungus infection of the skin that predominately occurs in between toes but can occur anywhere on the foot. The skin involved may be red, swollen and may contain sticky fluid. Patients may also experience a scaly dry rash on the bottom and sides of feet. Cracks or "fissures" can occur between the toes, sometimes with a accompanied soft white scale.
Avatar f tn I had the same trouble with one of my dogs. Every summer she got yeast infections in her feet. She'd cool off in the pool, and since she had big hairy toe pads, they harbored moisture and made a perfect environment for fungus. The stench was horrible! My vet recommended Dermachlor Flush Plus, and it was a godsend. It comes in a bottle and I'd squirt it on her toe pads and in between her toes twice a day for 3 days. Fungus gone.
Avatar m tn 2004/2005 Obtained a nasty fungus between my toes, and warts on the bottoms of feet, from a week of being wet in northern Australia while we waited out a typhoon in the garage of a cantina. In the early years I tried all sorts of over the counter creams and powders for the fungus (warts eventually went away after hitting what seemingly was "the mother wart" on my finger), I've tried Isopropyl, H2O2, and a few prescription creams. This was all back in the US.
Avatar f tn Is this fungus a bug and does it bite as it feels like something is crawling between toes and biting sensations,.. Whe I take off my socks in the morning, sometimes I see black specs all over my toe area...what is that..someone said dead fungus.... thank you.. Can you shed some light on this type of fungus.... Thank you...

Avatar f tn The same is true with a spot in the center of my head a 1/2 in from the front of my hair line, my belly button, under both finger nails on my middle fingers, the space between my middle and ring fingers, under both of my second toes and the space between my second and third toes. My belly button has dry skin where it itches. On my fingers and toes the places that itch are dry and grow calluses.
Avatar n tn Itching and peeling underneath the toes or in between the toes, usually is Athletes foot. This is a fungal infection, that is usualy caught walking bare footed where someone else with althletes foot has trod. For example in showers in the swimming pool, or trying on shoes that some one with althletes foot has tried on. You can get creams and powders for althletes foot from your pharmacist or a superstore. It is important to keep the feet clean and dry in between the toes.
Avatar f tn My husband has been experiencing a problem for about a year now. In between his toes and on the base of his toes he is losing layers of skin. im almost certain hes on his last layer. two of his toes on each foot keep webbing together and he has to peel them apart. i cant seem to find anything about this. he has no nerve damage.
Avatar m tn I have toe nail fungus on several toes on one foot. Is there a home cure? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/1100595'>TOENAIL FUNGUS</a>.
Avatar n tn i have a foot fungus under my toes and on the side of the baby toe. After applying the cream, should I wear a sock?
Avatar n tn I know it's not athlete's foot because #1 it didn't start in between my toes but more all over and not visible and #2 because my nails haven't had much effect taken on them.... So about a month and a half ago one night the middle and "index" toe on both of my feet had swollen up and because unbearably itchy... I went to the doctor, and this guy says "Oh my wife had the same thing pretty much but on her fingers....
Avatar n tn i have small red spots on top of my toes. They sting and kinda burn a little. Looks and feels like tiny blisters but are definetly not from shoes rubbing. After a while they dry up and " crust" over. Over counter meds for athletes foot dont help. No problems between or on bottoms of toes, and doesnt itch . Doesnt seem to be fungus as I wear mostly sandals or good clean socks Any ideas before i have to go to doc.
Avatar n tn my father always gets this white spot between his toes and we always help him clean it but it always comes back, he is a diabetic and i am concern if its a big issue or just a normal thing. i hope its not a skin cancer as i only found this category that is related to skin issues. It looks like mold and when we clean it, it stay white and it hurts him when he walks for a long distances.
Avatar f tn I have had a bump or two come up between my toes 1-2 x a year. It'll itch and then go away. I've learned though that if I pop them they spread. Well now I have them on the inside of my foot in-between my big toe and my arch. This is the first time they appeared anywhere differently. They itched so bad I ended up popping them and of course they spread (when popped the itching subsides immediately!).
Avatar n tn They burn in between my toes and they peel and ooze causing like a sore in between my toes. I figured it was athletes feet. I started soaking my feet in bleach water everyday for 2 months and it worked. The peeling and the oozing sores stopped and went away. Now recently they have come back not worse than before.. So I soaked them in bleach water and they are starting to heal again... I can't keep doing this regularly soaking my feet in bleach water.
Avatar f tn Solved - white skin between my little toes for years. I've tried everything. Doctors said it was caused by shoes and I needed to keep my feet dry. I believe it is a fungal infection. I've tried Tee Tree, bleach, lotrimin, quinsana powder, tolnaftate.... You name it ... I bet I've tried it.. But I finally found something that WORKS! Using a Q-TIP, several times a day apply a light coating of D-Limonene.
Avatar m tn It should not be able to survive in things like carpet or woodwork. Bleach will kill the fungus in damp areas of the bathroom. You could pick this up anywhere like a shower at the local gym, spas, or sometimes even going barefoot in the wrong places. My mother suffered from this and it was manageable with otc meds with the exception of the nails. Tannic acid in the tea kills the fungus and soaking the feet allow it to soak well into the trenches if ya no what I mean.
Avatar f tn This is the second time this has happened. On my left foot my toes have become swollen and horribly itchy and painful. Hurts to sleep walk or wear shoes. It's has happened in the warmer months too not just the winter months... I've been to a doctor and they gave me antibiotics which didn't help. Any thoughts?
Avatar m tn My children have had recurring blisters between their toes for the last several months. We've been to several dermatologists but no one can explain what these are. They are not itchy and they tend to get better and worse over the course of several weeks. Also, they start as pinhead sized blisters that can grow to involve the entire toe (or multiple small blisters that grow together). Lamasil seemed to help after the initial outbreak, but does nothing now.
Avatar f tn In theory yes you can get a fungal type infection under nail varnish but you would have to be pretty negligent to the state of your fingers to do so. If you are wearing several layers of varnish and it starts lifting instead of just flaking off it would be a prime site for an infection, most peoples varnish just flakes off and even if it did start lifting most people would just strip off the whole varnish. So the chances are pretty rare.
Avatar m tn Now I noticed it has moved to the tops of some of my other toes on both feet (NOT in between the toes or anywhere else on my foot only on the tops of the toes and on the outside sides of my big and little toes. I don't even want to call it a rash because it doesn't itch. It doesn't smell either. I can just tell it is there if I hit the area of my toes affected on something... there is just a feeling that it isn't normal. I have not used anything new or different on my feet.
Avatar m tn I just paint them. Keep them trimmed and paint them. Toes are a pain in the butt.
Avatar f tn Started out like athletes foot on his left foot then he started getting blisters between toes and on bottom of his foot they are very sore and make sores after they bust. He has some blisters on his hands also. He went to doctor several times they told him it was a fungus. Nothing has done it any good. Now its on both feet and hands. He is a diabetic and he has Sarcoidosis.
Avatar m tn Hello, I was invited to a bath house for the first time by one of my friends. As I was exploring the building I stepped into a dark room with hard floors with various televisions and pornography playing. As I entered I noticed two people leaving. Everyone walks around barefoot and with only a towel around their waist at these places by the way.
Avatar m tn Try Vick's VapoRub. It works for athlete's foot which is also a fungus. This is what my doctor told me to use when I got the itches between my toes. It works.
