What Causes Itching And Inflammation On The Feet?

my foot (one or the other) develops redness and a stinging itch. On the affected foot, the big toe will be slightly swollen. I solve the itch with cortozone. I am 66, average health. In January medical check up my sugar was 102. I am not obsese; but could loose 8-12 lbs. Winter weather not as active as I can be. I take hydrocholozoide for blood pressure--probably over 20 years now.

Hello,

Itching may be due to fungal infection or eczema or footwear rash, etcetera.

Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is. Please consult your dermatologist who will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
