What Causes Lumps Like Blisters In Between The Toes?
I have what look like blisters forming on my toes. Two in between my big toe and second toe. Other solid feeling red bumps on the sides of my feet. I m 25 and walk a lot. I thought it was due to sweating and the type of shoes I walk in. Most of the time it s boots, because I live in seattle where it rains all the time. Now it s to a point where it is getting irritated to bend my toes and they rub together when I walk. I also think i have poor circulation because my legs and feet are blotchy and red. Is soaking them in apple cider vinegar going to help? What can I do, I have to be able to walk without further injuring myself. I have had surgery on my knee and have had multiple breaks and fractures in my feet.

I am Dr Fahim and I will help you with your problem
I have gone through your question. It appears to be athlete foot with blistering formation called bullous tinia pedis. Hot and moist environment favours infection by tinea pedis causing athlete foot.
It is easy to treat, and treatment consist of two principles. First making the suitable environment, unavailable for fungus to grow by keeping the foot dry, clean and wearing open shoes. Second the anti-fungal therapy. If a patient present to me I usually prescribe anti-fungal cream (clotrimazol) for four weeks. Treatment to be continued for one week, even after all the lesions are settled.
I hope my answer will help you. Do rate it, If you like it.
