Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
This looks to be a fungal infection as the spot is same every time.
Whenever the toe gets an environment, it recurs. IT is never gone, only subsided.
Oral and topical antifungal creams should solve your problems.
As also you should wear loose shoes or no shoes if possible as the closed space causes more infection.
