Suggest OTC Medication For Crusty, Itchy Sore Between Toes
Hi I have what im sure is athletes foot but its in between my last two smaller toes. its crusty and I have seemed to develop a huge chunk out of it and its very sore and itchy and my feet have an awful smell to them. is there anything I can use to treat it without a prescription?
First and very important thing that you need to take care of is that you need to keep your foot DRY else it will not heal in any case. You can take Clotrimazole 1% & Hydrocortisone 1% cream and apply between your fingers. It will take 3-4 weeks to resolve but may prolong if you do not take care. For itching you can take cetrizine before going to bed.
Get Well soon. Thank You
