Brief Answer:
Possible bacterial infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service. I read your query and here is my advice.

I would prefer to see a photo of the rash and foot in order to have a better approach
I can believe that it may be something more than fungal infection. I think this is probably a bacterial infection of the toe and foot put over the fungal infection and nail problems.
If it is true you may need to take oral antibiotics.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
