What Causes Ripped Toe Skin With Dampness?
The skin between my pinky toe and index toe (the next one over) seems to be ripped substantially. The rip is damp. I have no idea what could have happened. I did not sustain any injury to my feet lately. What could be wrong?Age: 19Height: 5 8 Weight: 125 lbsMedical history: gastric ulcers within the past year, currently taking Doryx antibiotic
