Having Exaggerated Gold Ball Effect On Heel, Pits, Itchy Sensation Between Toes. Cure

My socks stick to my feet, I have a exaggerated gold ball effect on my heel, I have pits / craters on the ball if my feet and a itchy sensation between my toes. It seems to me enhanced by moisture but I have to wear steel toe cap boots for 14 hours a day and after a 14 hour period my feet will clear a room. Even after washing.
Is there anything I can do to cure this? I've tried athletes foot powders, anti bacterial cleaners and powders even bleaching.

Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. It seems to me that you are sweating too much due to anxiety and are having itchy feet and thus also the sensation in your toes. I hope you keep them clean and dry. I do not think any powder will help. Using socks that absorb and emit moisture may be helpful. I wonder if you need to see a dermatologist also. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
