Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have an athletes foot condition on my little toe, for the first time in my life... I thought I had a bug bite, but it is now swollen and has a blister on the inside. After reading symptoms, it looks as though it has a bacterial infection. Is there an over the counter treatment for this stage, or do I need to get an antibiotic?
thanks for posting your query to hcm. it is secondary bacterial infection .if there is no pus collection you can take antibiotics along with aniinflammatory drug like aceclophenc or diclophenac to relieve odema and cure infection . But if pus is formed it will require surgical intervention .
