How Can Ring Worm And Fungal Infection Between The Fingers Be Treated?
I have been suffering from ringworm with fungal infection between last two fingers of my left leg. I wear shoes for 12-14 hours in a day due to my job. It doesn t itch but feel pain and sometimes it swelling so I feel hard to walk. I tried with fourderm, btex, salicol ointment creams but no luck. Any suggestions / advices are appreciated please.

Hi,
You seem to suffer from candidal intertrigo in the toe web. It is caused by fungus called Candida albicans. Wetness, perspiration, soap, tight shoes, etc. Might precipitate or exacerbate the disease.
Diabetes, immunodeficienc,poor hygiene etc may be other factor for the disease. Antifungal capsules and antifungal cream may be considered. Dettol bath may be taken. Keep the area dry.
