Itchy toes? Athlete's foot perhaps?!


Question: Itchy toes? Athlete's foot perhaps?
It's not nasty or anything my toes just itch on my left foot in the winter. only in between my pinky and the ring finger toe and that one with my middle toe. They don't get any rashes they just itch and I end up scratching off my skin until it's raw. It doesn't happen in the summer time. I was just wondering if this could be athlete's foot or some other disease.

Try this:
Mix 50% rubbing alcohol and 50% white vinegar in a spray bottle. Spray your toes once a day.
If it is an infection, it will go away.



It could be a mild case of Athletes foot. Ask your pharmacist for an over the counter treatment initially and see if it helps.
You probably get it in winter as you spend more time wearing closed shoes etc. Wash you feet daily and wear clean socks with your shoes each day. Go without shoes at home to let your feet breathe. The organism causing athletes foot thrives in the moist, warm conditions created around the feet by wearing shoes.

If the problem does not improve or gets worse, see your doctor.

Hope this helps



It doesn't sound like athletes foot, trust me. They puss and abscess And you would know if it was because it contagious and all of your toes would be infected. They share the same shoe and hot wet places are breeding grounds for things like that. It might be just a tiny infection. Try an anti-fungal cream. You can get them and any drugstore. Try not to scratch. When that happeneds to me I usually slap it. Lol it might sound weird but it works yo make it stop itching.



Is your skin cracking and peeling? If it's the case then maybe it is athlete's foot.
