Wat is this ....?

Question

i have dry cracked skin in between my toes and also were the toe meets the sole of the foot. its so so so painful. ive been putting sudocream and bathing it in salt and water but its not workin.

could anyone tell me have they ever had this or what could i do to treat it thanks??

Answer 1

ok its one of 2 things
Athletes foot or some form of dermatitis
sounds like athletes foot to me which is caused by an overgrowth of bacteria on your feet builing up where the sweat gets stuck. If it were dermatitis the sudocream would be giving it moisture and healing it, so the fact that it isnt getting better tells me that it is athletes foot. Painful and itchy too. The skin between my toes was falling off and spliitting open, I was told to clean it regularly and apply Lamasil spray, good strong stuff! also you need to let the area breathe so when you get home get the socks and shoes off and let the air in. do not wear synthetic socks and shoes until it heals. Leather shoes and cotton socks will let it breath. or vented trainers.
One thing you will need to do to prevent getting straight back is to clean all your shoes inside with some form of disinfectant and then spray the athletes foot spray inside them to kill any bacteria living in them. Give it 3 weeks with this and you should clear up, but if you dont you will need to see your GP.

Answer 2

Hi, if you are having constantly itchy/ cracking feet is is very likely to be athlete's foot. This a fungal infection that occurs often with athlete's because they do not dry their feet properly and play with either constantly wet feet or damp shoes and sock's. Don't worry it is only temporary all you need to do is see a GP and get the right cream or powder. It will also help to prevent it from happening again, so if you think back to when your symptoms first occurred, where were you and what were you doing? The most common place to get athlete's foot is in public showers, I'm not saying didnt use them but try and be cautious if this is the case, by wearing shower slippers (or sandals). You don't have to spend a large sum of money they sell them at primark for a mere £3. Good Luck, i hope everything goes well and you manage to sort it out. = )

Answer 3

Athletes foot it's called, caused by sweating cos wearing trainers a lot or not drying properley betweenyour toes after a shower, Loads of creams for it @ chemists, some better than others, trial & error to see which is best for you really

Answer 4

It sounds like athletes foot. It is basically ringworm that is between the toes. Look up ringworm if you don't know what it is. DO NOT get it on any other parts of your body or in your eyes that stuff is nasty. A cream you can buy in stores for jock itch or athletes foot will work.

Answer 5

Hmmm. Athlete's foot springs to mind. There are powders available for it. Your pharmacist could tell you. So could a school doctor or anybody medically inclined.

If you use public showers, try using flip flops when walking around areas that other people walk in. Certainly now, to stop "sharing" it with others and certainly in the future, not to pick it up again. You might want to tell your Phised teacher

Answer 6
